OLDS — Two basketball players, Landon Parrington and Michaela Allen-Gullion are the A & W Olds College athletes of the week for Feb. 16-20.
Male Athlete of the Week
Parrington was one of the few bright spots for the men's basketball team on Friday night in a 128-67 loss to Lethbridge College.
Continuing his solid play this semester, the second-year forward had 21 points, three rebounds, two assists and one block in the loss.
The Saskatoon native was able to follow that up with 24 points and 10 rebounds in the Saturday matinee.
The business management student-athlete’s physicality proved to be an issue for Lethbridge College, enabling the Broncos to hang in.
They still ended up losing, but by a closer score this time, 89-73 to the nationally-ranked Kodiaks.
Female Athlete of the Week
Allen-Gullion had a big weekend for the Broncos.
The fifth-year student-athlete hailing from Calgary had 25 points, six rebounds and four assists in Friday’s tight 64-63 loss to Lethbridge College.
The sports management student followed that up with a 14-point, four-rebound, and four-assist performance in a 63-54 win Saturday afternoon.
