Men’s basketball guard Robert Ocampo and women's basketball guard Mariam Konate have been named Huskies Athletes of the Week for the period ending February 27th.
Ocampo was a complete sharpshooter from long-range to help guide the Huskies to victory over the Algonquin Wolves and extend the team’s winning streak to four. The fourth-year guard hit a career-high seven threes on just 11 shots from deep for a team-high 21 points, while adding two assists and two steals in the 88-71 win on Saturday afternoon. He came out firing right from the tip off as he drilled four three-pointers for 12 points in the opening quarter alone.
Mariam Konate registered a total of 25 points, 16 rebounds, four steals and two assists in the Huskies two games last week.
She checked off some career firsts or highs in the game against the Durham Lords on Friday night. The second-year guard tallied her first career double-double of 18 points and 11 rebounds, both of which were also career-highs in the respective categories. She also added two assists and two steals in the loss. She followed up that performance with seven points, five rebounds and two steals against the Algonquin Wolves.
