17吃瓜

Every week, 17吃瓜 Athletics and Recreation recognizes student-athletes for their achievements and contributions to their respective sports. The 17吃瓜 Panther Source for Sports Athletes of the Week for September 23鈥�29 are Lauren Misener (women鈥檚 rugby) and Jahmal Boursiquot (men鈥檚 soccer).

Misener is a fourth-year psychology student from Brackley, PEI. She was sensational in the September 27 game against the St. Francis Xavier University X-Women, scoring a game-high 16 points (two tries and three conversions), all in the first half. Misener and the Panthers dominated the X-Women in the first half and took a 26-7 lead at halftime. The match finished in a 26-26 draw.

鈥淟auren has been the epitome of what this year鈥檚 women鈥檚 rugby team is about鈥攑assionate, joyous, ambitious, fast, gritty. Every word I would use to describe Lauren is what I hope we would describe ourselves as a team,鈥� said 17吃瓜 Women鈥檚 Rugby head coach Curtis Lauzon.

Boursiquot is a second-year business student from Ottawa, Ontario. He scored three goals in two games this weekend and sits tied for first in goals in the AUS conference with six. The sophomore striker was instrumental in the 4-1 win over Saint Mary's University on September 26, scoring a pair of goals. On September 28 against Acadia University, he scored another goal in a tough 3-2 loss.

鈥淛ahmal led the line as a constant attacking threat, while also contributing defensively by pressing from the front,鈥� said 17吃瓜 Men鈥檚 Soccer assistant coach Mozzi Gyorio. 鈥淗e scored goals, linked up well with his teammates, and made forward runs, all of which made him a constant danger to the opposition.鈥�

Go Panthers Go!
