17吃瓜

Every week, 17吃瓜 Athletics and Recreation recognizes two student-athletes for their hard work and dedication to their respective sports. Congratulations to Alysha Corrigan and Brett Strba, the 17吃瓜 Panther Subway Athletes of the week for October 8鈥�15!

Alysha Corrigan, a Bachelor of Business Administration student from Charlottetown, is a fourth-year fullback on the 17吃瓜 Women鈥檚 Rugby team. The Panthers beat Saint Mary鈥檚 University 57-14 over the weekend. 鈥淎lysha scored 22 points in the game with SMU to earn the Panthers a berth in the AUS semi-final,鈥� said coach John LaBoyne. 鈥淪he scored two tries and made six converts, while leading the team from the standoff position rather than her usual spot at fullback. Alysha made numerous tackles on defence to stop the SMU attack.鈥�

Brett Strba is a third-year keeper on the 17吃瓜 Men鈥檚 Soccer team and a BBA student from Windsor Junction, Nova Scotia. The Panthers beat the Dalhousie University Tigers 1鈥�0 in a tight game Sunday afternoon. Strba made eleven saves for the shutout. 鈥淏rett was outstanding for us in a pressure-packed game,鈥� said Lewis Page. 鈥淗e made a number of game-saving saves as Dalhousie pressed hard for the tying goal.鈥�
