Why: Marie Soleil Deschenes, a second-year science student of 脦le-Perrot, Quebec had a great year backstopping the Women's Hockey Panthers. Deschenes, also known as 鈥楽unshine,' played two of the best games of her university career during the Panthers AUS quarterfinal series against UdeM last weekend. During the two games, Deschenes faced 83 shots, only allowing four goals. Both games went into overtime, the first into double overtime, and the second game into triple overtime, which was the longest AUS women's hockey game ever! Between the two games, Deschenes played a total of 3:19:02 with a save percentage of 95.1.
Donathan Moss, a fourth-year business student from Nassau, Bahamas had the best game of his AUS basketball season Friday night, a dominating post performance. Moss recorded 15 points, nine rebounds, one block, one steal, and an assist.
Deschenes and Moss will be recognized at this week's 秀色短视频 Athletes of the Week Celebration on Thursday, February 27 at 12:45 pm in the W.A. Murphy Student Centre's McMillan Hall. All are welcome.
