UPEI Athletics and Recreation announces Subway Athletes of the Week—September 21-27
The UPEI Panther Subway Athletes of the Week for the week of September 21-27 are Amy Andrews, Women’s Rugby and Harminder Singh, Men’s Soccer. UPEI Athletics and Recreation showcases these talented athletes to recognize their hard work and dedication to their respective sports. UPEI Athletes of the Week are also nominated to Atlantic University Sport and Canadian Interuniversity Sport for possible recognition in the region and/or country.
Andrews, a third-year Bachelor of Science student from Charlottetown, PEI, was an important contributor during the Rugby Panthers 27-5 win over the Saint Mary’s Huskies on Saturday. Andrews scored 12 of the points and was strong in the front row. Andrews stood out with her agility in loose play, support offensively, and in the rucks defensively.
Singh, a fourth-year Bachelor of Science student from Cremona, Italy, continued to perform offensively for the Men’s Soccer Panthers this weekend and earned his second consecutive Athlete of the Week honours. On Friday versus the University of New Brunswick, Singh scored in extra time to help the Panthers tie 1-1, and then at Université de Moncton on Sunday, he scored the game winner during the Panthers 2-1 win over the Blue Eagles.
