Female Basketball Athlete of the Week
Mackenzie Dalphond – Douglas Royals

In a battle for third, first-year forward Mackenzie Dalphond had an outstanding performance off the bench, earning the Royals a weekend split with the CBC Bearcats.  In an extremely entertaining game on Friday, where the lead changed or was tied 11 times, she led her Royals with a double-double of 12 points and 10 rebounds, shooting 67% from the field. She added a pair of blocks and had a steal. Then in Saturday’s rematch, she continued her effectiveness in the paint, shooting 80% from the field, and netting a team high 20 points, leading the Royals to a comfortable win. She was one rebound shy of consecutive double-doubles, as she grabbed nine boards, and added a block and a steal.
