Athletes of the Week

Leading the way, Inglis, Pellerine named Excalibur Athletes of the Week (Feb 25-27)

Leading their respective teams over the weekend, curling's Leslie Inglis and volleyball's Isabelle Pellerine are this week's Excalibur Athletes of the Week.

Hitting the ice for the OUA Curling Championships over the weekend in Waterloo, skip Inglis led the Excalibur team to a 3-1 record in round robin play, which also included a 2-1 victory over the eventual OUA champions, Laurier Golden Hawks. The Excalibur were tied atop Pool A after the round robin games, with a closely contested match against the eventual OUA silver medal winning Brock Badgers in the quarterfinal.

On the court, Pellerine stepped in as a starter, filling in for injured setter and co-captain Heidi Hayes. Showing great composure throughout the five set match against the Nipissing Lakers, Pellerine was able to quarterback the offence, getting around the opposing blockers and contributed with timely aces from the service line.
