⚾ RAY CARTER CUP ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT ⚾

Mark Jankowski grew up as a formidable multi-sport athlete who won two Baseball Canada national championships, including the Ray Carter Cup representing Ontario in 2009.

Eventually, hockey won out as Jankowski was selected 21st overall by the Calgary Flames in 2012. Now, Jankowski looks to add to his championship pedigree as he plays in the Stanley Cup Final with the Carolina Hurricanes!

Fun Fact: In the Eastern Conference Final, Jankowski's Hurricanes defeated the Montreal Canadiens, where he faced off with 2009 Ray Carter Cup teammate Josh Anderson!

This August, the next generation of elite 15U Canadian ballplayers takes the field as the Baseball Canada Ray Carter Cup returns to Summerside.

From national championships to the big leagues — it all starts here.

🗓 August 20–23, 2026
