Players of the Week for Week 8 |
Congratulations to our players of the week for week eight!
Week 8:
Men's divisions Player of the Week: Joseph Deally
Joseph has been playing in the WTHL for the last couple years. Joseph entered the league by joining the Phoenix H.C. and comes to the WTHL as a former Kelvin High School player. Joseph is one of a few fresh new faces that has helped replenish the lines of Phoenix and helped keep their team competitive from week to week. Joseph was a member of the 2013 Jr. Men's Provincial team and is currently working to make 2014 a repeat year as a provincial player.
Joseph plays as a back and is a strong two way player for his team. Joseph's teammates say his ability to see the court and exploit the opposing team's defense make him a valuable player for Phoenix. This is shown in his contribution of 42 goals in just 10 games so far this season!
Joseph is just one of three Deally's currently playing for Phoenix, having his younger brother and father as teammates. We wish Joseph and his team Phoenix the best of luck for the remainder of the season
Women's Player of the Week: Brynn Lloyd
Brynn has been playing as part of the WTHL for approximately 13 years! Brynn started playing team handball in high school at Sturgeon Creek Collegiate while attending St. James Collegiate. Brynn is a former Junior Women's provincial team member and made the transition to the WTHL playing for the Phoenix Women's handball team.
Brynn is described by teammates as a versatile athlete who is also an integral part of the team. Her sense of commitment, work ethic and friendly attitude make her an ideal teammate. Brynn mostly plays as a right back and has accumulated 22 goals in her last 9 games!
A little known fact about Brynn is that she has an addiction to dill pickle flavored popcorn! Best of luck to Brynn for the remainder of the season and look for Phoenix to utilize Brynn's offensive presence come playoff time!
