Brooklyn De Jong: February's Zueike Female Athlete of the Month
Congratulations to Brooklyn De Jong of Women's Volleyball on being selected the CMU Zueike Female Athlete of the Month for February. The third year middle was a consistent force in the Blazers' front court during the home stretch of the season.
Although the season has now wrapped up, Blazers Women's Volleyball had a strong finish to their regular season with wins in two of their final three league games, including a straight-sets victory over the eventual MCAC Champions St Boniface Les Rouges. The team won nine sets and lost only six throughout their regular season games in February and their most veteran player and captain Brooklyn De Jong was a big part of that late-season success.

Daniel Cameron: January's Zueike Male Athlete of the Month
Congratulations to Daniel Cameron of Men's Basketball on being selected the CMU Zueike Male Athlete of the Month for January. The rookie forward has been a handful for the opposition to contain in his first season with the Blazers.
Cameron has undoubtedly been a bright spot for the Blazers who sit squarely in second place in the MCAC standings, and still fighting to earn their spot in the NIAC Championships later in February. The Regina, Saskatchewan native was certainly a big signing in the summer, pegged to be an instant impact player, but few would have guessed he would become so productive so quickly. In a year of huge lineup changes for the Blazers men's basketball squad, Cameron has filled a big void in the starting lineup that led the MCAC Conference standings all of last season.
