UPEI announces the Panther Subway Athletes of the Week, November 14-20

| Athletics

Every week, UPEI Athletics and Recreation recognizes two student-athletes for their hard work and dedication to their respective sports. Congratulations to Jane McLaughlin (Women’s Basketball) and Marcus Power (Men’s Hockey), the UPEI Panther Subway Athletes of the week for November 14-20!

Jane McLaughlin is a third-year forward on the UPEI Women’s Basketball team. She is a Bachelor of Nursing Student from Fortune, PEI. She led the Panther’s offence this weekend over two games, averaging eleven points, six rebounds, and three assists. “Jane had an outstanding weekend,” said coach Greg Gould. “She led the offence and was equally outstanding defensively shutting down much taller and bigger post players.”

Marcus Power is a third-year forward on the UPEI Men's Hockey team, and a Business student from St. John’s Newfoundland. The Panthers dropped two games over the weekend, but Power scored two goals. “Marcus battled some early injuries in the season,” said coach Forbes MacPherson. “He has been working more consistently and has been rewarded this week with a couple goals. For our team to have success, Marcus will have to have the same effort every night.”
