NAME: Brittany Knievel
After suffering an injury early in the season, Knievel is rounding into form. This past weekend, the Mariners travelled to Surrey and Vancouver to take on the Kwantlen Eagles and Langara Falcons. “Brittany provided us with the inside presence we desperately need to be successful” stated Coach McWhinnie. On Friday, Knievel had 16 points and 9 rebounds in a 74-38 win against Kwantlen. On Saturday, she added 22 points and had 9 rebounds in a 64-39 win against Langara. Knievel continues to get better each week and has been a big reason for the Mariners’ recent success.

Aruajo had a great weekend in helping the Timberwolves move to 8-2 and take sole possession of 2nd place in the league standings.

Aruajo shot 9/18 from the 3 point line in the game and also contributed 5 assists and 4 rebounds. Saturday night against CBC, Aruajo was also effective contributing 14 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 steals in a 104-77 victory.
