Women’s basketball forward Kayana Granger and men’s volleyball outside hitter Amiel Dela Rosa have been named Huskies Athletes of the Week for the period ending February 14th.
On the opening week of the OCAA season, Granger, a returning player from the 2019-2020 roster, led the Huskies to two victories. Over the two games, the second-year forward recorded 25 points, 29 rebounds, five assists, two blocks and a steal. She posted double-doubles in both wins against the St. Lawrence Surge and Loyalist Lancers.
In the team’s season opener against St. Lawrence, the forward filled up the stat sheet with a game-high 12 rebounds and four assists while adding 10 points, a block and a steal. The Huskies took down the Surge 56-48 on the road on Friday night. Then, less than 24 hours later, she followed up that performance with a double-double of 15 points and 17 rebounds, both of which were team-highs, in a 68-61 victory over the Lancers.
Dela Rosa played a pivotal role in the two men’s volleyball victories this past weekend. He tallied 17 points off of 14 kills, two service aces and a block while adding eight digs.
In the home opener, the first-year outside hitter put up a game-high seven points on six kills and an ace to help the Huskies shutout the Fleming Knights 3-0. He kept the momentum going on Sunday afternoon by recording 10 points on eight kills, an ace, and a block while racking up seven digs. His performance helped the Huskies defeat the Loyalist Lancers 3-1 to begin their 2022 campaign with a 2-0 record.
