Three Oaks star Emily McKenna brings added dimension to UPEI Women’s Rugby

The Three Oaks Senior High Female Athlete of the Year—Emily McKenna—is joining the UPEI Panthers. And she’s doing it as a rugby player.

After going through possible scenarios, McKenna—a three-sport athlete with the Three Oaks Axewomen—ultimately decided to pursue rugby at the next level, citing her love of the sport as the deciding factor.

“Just about everything about the sport piques my interest,” McKenna said. “The intensity is one of my favourite parts. I play every sport with a high intensity level, but sometimes you don’t get the same level in return.”
