Women's basketball player Melissa Tatti and men's rowers Thomas Markewich and Stephen Harris were named the Brock University's Boston Pizza Pen Centre Athletes of the Week for the week ending on Nov. 3.
Tatti, a senior point guard from Ancaster who is studying Social Sciences, led her team in scoring in back-to-back victories over the defending champion McMaster Marauders at Bob Davis Gymnasium and the Toronto Varsity Blues on the road last week to help the Brock women's basketball team remain undefeated to start the season. On Oct. 30, Tatti scored 19 points, collected eight rebounds and added five assists during a 75-61 win over McMaster. On Nov. 2, Tatti registered 23 points, seven assists and went five-for-five at three throw line in Toronto.
For a second consecutive week Markewich, a second-year Medical Sciences student from Regina, SK, and Harris, a first-year Sport Management student from Guelph, earned Male Athletes of the Week honours. The duo brought home three medals from the Canadian University Rowing Championships in Victoria, BC. Markewich won an individual gold in the men's lightweight single while Harris helped the men's lightweight four to a bronze-medal finish. Together, Markewich and Harris won gold in the men's lightweight double.
