Myriam English

It was made official on Feb. 19 that the two sisters are the best in the province after the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) recognized Myriam English as the most valuable player in the east division, and awarded first all-star team spots to both Myriam and Kelsie English and an all-star rookie team spot to Kaly Soro.

“Our response was two weeks of training,” said Gees-Gees head coach Lionel Woods, explaining their strategy after previously losing to Ryerson. “This match was the result of our response; we got together, talked about it together, and figured it out together.”
