BROCK NEWS
The women's basketball team continues on a hot streak having won six of their last seven games against teams from their conference.
Brock handed Waterloo a loss on the road by a score of 68-60 led by senior Sharon Hollinshead's game-high 20 points while chipping in eight boards. The Badgers were lights out from the free throw line as they went 24-for-31 from the line.
Three nights later Brock headed to Guelph where they handed the Gryphons their ninth loss of the season by a score of 68-63. The streaking Badgers received a balanced effort from everyone on the floor headed by senior Kaila Agius with a game-high 17 points and five rebounds.
Brock Badgers men's basketball is back with a vengeance. The men found themselves down at halftime while visiting the Waterloo Warriors, but came out in the second half and scored 53 points en route to a 81-67 win.
Brock then travelled to Guelph for a battle with the Gryphons for first place in the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) West Division. The Badgers walked away with a 87-79 win earning a three-way tie for first place in the West Division. Brock had four starters earn double digits, including Mike Kemp (27 points), Brad Rootes (22), Scott Murray (14) and Owen White (11).
Rootes added six rebounds to go along with his 22 points making him the only guard in school history to achieve 2500 points and 600 career rebounds.
The Brock Badgers women's hockey team earned back-to-back ties against the Queen's Golden Gaels.
The Badgers earned two valuable points as they continue to stay in the hunt for a playoff spot as the season begins to dwindle down. This week, Badgers captain Briar Komenda took over as the all-time leading Badger in games played at 108.
Brock wrestling hosted the Brock Invitational on Tuesday and convincingly won both the male and the female titles.
On the men's side, Brock captured nine of 10 weight classes with Aaron Fabiano, Dylan Fryia, CJ Hudson, Pete Simons, Evan MacDonald, Chris Laverick, Brad Trimble, Alex Brown-Theriault and Mike Neufeld all enjoying the taste of gold, finishing first in their respective weight classes.
The women won four of their weight classes led by Jasmine Mian, Jessica Bondy, Michelle Fazzari and Jocelyn Dresser all of whom also earned first place.
Men's basketball player Mike Kemp and women's wrestler Michelle Fazzari were named the Brock University Henley Honda Male and Female Athletes of the Week this week.
