Cameron is the first Petes defenceman to be voted to an all-rookie team since Slater Koekkoek in 2010-11.

“It’s an honour to be recognized by the league for the year I had,” said Cameron. “I’m looking forward to getting back to the PMC and continuing to grow.”

The Bobcaygeon native was selected 15th overall by the Petes in the 2023 OHL Priority Selection. In his debut season, he tallied 4 goals and 22 assists for 26 points across 59 games.

“Congratulations to Carson and all the hard work he put in over the season. Being recognized as one of the top performers in the league is a great accomplishment,” said Michael Oke, Petes general manager and vice president of operations. “We are looking forward to watching Carson continue to grow and develop as a player moving forward.”

The CHL Import Draft takes place on July 3 at 11 a.m. The Petes hold the ninth overall selection in the draft.
