69传媒

Every week, 69传媒Athletics and Recreation recognizes two student athletes for their achievements and dedication to their respective sports. Congratulations to Brinten Comeau and Evan Couturier, the 69传媒Panther Subway Athletes of the Week for September 2 to 8.

Brinten Comeau is a flank on the 69传媒Women鈥檚 Rugby team and a second-year student in the Faculty of Arts. The Hammonds Plains, Nova Scotia native was named the Century 21 69传媒Defensive Player of the Game for the team鈥檚 home opener against St. Francis Xavier on Friday. 鈥�Brinten tackled players much bigger than herself to stop them gaining any significant yardage,鈥� said coach John LaBoyne. 鈥淚n attack, she broke through the FX defense with piecing runs and offloading to teammates to make gains for the Panthers.鈥�

Evan Couturier is a goalkeeper on the 69传媒Men鈥檚 Soccer team and a first-year Faculty of Business student from Lower Coverdale, New Brunswick. The Panthers started the season this weekend with a pair of losses on the road. Couturier was starting keeper Sunday against two-time U SPORTS Men鈥檚 Soccer championship finalists Cape Breton University, making seven saves. 鈥淓van started on short notice and showed no signs of nerves facing CBU at home,鈥� said coach Lewis Page. 鈥淭he rookie goalkeeper gave us a preview of what is going to be a great AUS career.鈥�

Go Panthers Go!
