RAW Summer Camp 2026 · New Brunswick
“It’s a big step in the right direction of proving the east coast has players.” Eight athletes owned the week at the 2026 RAW New Brunswick Summer Camp. Here is every one of them.
Nobody hands out an MVP medal on day one. At a RAW camp you earn it in the reps nobody films: the third one-on-one of the morning, the drill you lost yesterday, the walk back to the line when your legs are done.
Over a week in New Brunswick, eight athletes did exactly that, and one of them did it twice. They came in from Fredericton, Saint John, Dieppe and Moncton. One has a university offer in hand. One of them could not get on the field at all in his first season. Same habit.
Here is the class.
The Roll Call
The only athlete in New Brunswick to walk out with two.
Two awards in one week. Quarterback MVP for the position, and Offensive MVP for being the best player on that side of the ball regardless of position. Nobody else at camp got both.
Composed, patient, prepared. Three words, and not one of them is about arm talent. That is a quarterback describing the job honestly, and it is why the staff kept putting him in front of the huddle.
He is class of 2027 with Rookie of the Year and Sportsman of the Year already behind him, and his favourite football memory is still the first touchdown he ever threw.
“Winning camp MVP means so much to me, it’s showing that the hard work is starting to pay off.”
Masan Coffin
Already has the offer. Came to camp anyway.
Defensive MVP is the biggest award on that side of the ball, and it went to an athlete who already has a university offer in his pocket. He came and competed for it anyway. That is the whole story.
His favourite memory is the 2025 Canada Cup, a sack to seal the win over Team Nova Scotia, in front of a packed house. He does not describe the play. He describes the bench.
“The game was packed and the entire sideline got hype for me.”
Before camp he had already collected two NBHSFL All-Star selections, NBHSFL Defensive Player of the Year, NBHSFL Defensive Lineman of the Year, ACC Team East honours and multiple Canada Cup Player of the Game awards. Toronto has made its offer. He is still chasing the highest level he can reach.
“I expect it from myself, so winning it brings reassurance and confidence to my game. Everywhere I go I want to be viewed as the best.”
Victor Woodruff
One year ago he says he was not a good football player.
This is the best twelve months in the whole series. Darius will tell you himself that a year ago he was not a good football player. He went to work on it every single day, and he walked out of this camp as the best running back in the building.
Fast, observant, shifty. The middle one is the giveaway. Speed is given, vision is built, and he built his in a year.
Ask him for a favourite memory and he does not pick one.
“I don’t really have a favourite memory, I’m just happy I get to play the game.”
“It means a lot considering I wasn’t a good football player a year ago and I worked at it everyday and it pays off now, and I will continue to keep grinding.”
Darius Moses
Two offers already on the table, and he wants more.
Offensive line is the least glamorous award at any camp and one of the hardest to win, because it is five days of one-on-ones with nowhere to hide. Malick won it out of Dieppe.
He already has two university offers in hand, UNB and Mount Allison, and he is not treating either as the finish line. The target is Division I. His favourite memory is from the other side of the ball entirely, the first sack he ever got playing defensive line.
“This award means a lot to me, and I’m ready to prove myself, show what I can do, and impress the coaches at the next level.”
Malick Anne
He thought he had a bad summer. The medal disagreed.
Ashton spent his entire first season of football waiting for a chance to get on the field. It came in the final. He got his first sack. That is the memory he picked out of everything since.
This is the most honest answer anybody gave us all summer, and it is the reason this award mattered more to him than to most.
“Over the summer I felt as though I didn’t perform as well as I wanted, and to get D-Line MVP it was a nice pick me up and reminder of who I am before we go into this year’s high school season.”
Ashton Taylor
He wants the OUA, drawn to the culture and the level of competition in Ontario. He goes into this high school season reminded of exactly who he is.
The only Grade 9 or 10 kid on varsity, and he knew why that mattered.
Class of 2029, and he has already spent a season as the only Grade 9 or 10 player on a varsity roster. That is the memory he picked: not a play, the chance to prove he belonged in that room.
He is chasing All-Conference in U SPORTS. But when we asked what the award meant, he did not answer about himself first.
“It means so much, because it’s a big step in the right direction of proving the east coast has players and deserves more opportunities. I have been trying to prove myself and prove I can participate with the older kids no matter my age.”
Reuben Robichaud
Fifteen years old, and the first thing on his mind is the region. That answer is the reason this camp exists.
The best hands in the building.
Receiver is the position where you either come down with it or you do not, in front of everybody. Aiden spent the week on the right side of that, against defensive backs who knew exactly what was coming, and he took the award out of a competitive group.
The toughest matchup in the building.
Defensive back is the one position where every mistake is public. Alec lined up across from the best receivers at camp all week, took the hardest assignment on the field, and kept winning his share of it.
Eight athletes. Nine awards. One quarterback who took two of them, one defensive lineman with a Toronto offer already in hand, one running back who says he was not a football player a year ago, and one fifteen year old whose first thought about his own medal was what it proved about his region.
They are chasing U SPORTS, the OUA, Division I. What they share is the thing no award can hand you: they got better this week, on purpose.
Congratulations to Masan, Victor, Aiden, Darius, Malick, Ashton, Reuben and Alec. The east coast has players. We will be watching this season.
