Colyn was declared Spartan Male Athlete of the Week for a second time, the first following TWU’s first week of Canada West action against UBC Okanagan.
Trinity Western forward Nicole Fransson was named Spartan Female Athlete of the Week after her stellar weekend at the Regina Cougar Classic.
The third-year power forward was a force to be reckoned with, securing rebounds and leading the scoring surge for the Spartans throughout their 2-1 weekend at the preseason event.
Fransson’s weekend was highlighted by her outstanding performance on Friday, Oct. 1, as she posted a double-double line of 15 points and 16 rebounds in only 21 minutes of work, lifting the Spartans to an 82-45 win over Brandon.
