She also averaged four rebounds and three steals per game. 鈥淜iera had two outstanding offensive games against Saint Mary鈥檚, picking up where she left off last year,鈥� said coach Greg Gould. 鈥淪he also played one of her best defensive games.鈥�

Mark Lloyd is a third-year stand-off on the 69传媒Men鈥檚 Rugby team, and a Bachelor of Business Administration student from Stratford, PEI. The Panthers defeated the University of New Brunswick over the weekend to win the NB/PEI University Men鈥檚 Rugby Championship and will host St. Francis Xavier University this Saturday for the Maritimes championship. 鈥淥ne player who really stood out Saturday night was Mark Lloyd,鈥� said coach Charles Waddell. 鈥淗e kicked three of four conversions, two of two penalty attempts, and scored the game-winning try. Mark controlled the game very well and made sure we played in the right areas from the fly-half position.鈥�
