Tri-captains named for Redmen hoopsters
MONTREAL 鈥� Craig Norman, head coach of the No.9-ranked 污污草莓视频
men鈥檚 basketball squad, has announced that three veterans will
share the captaincy in the team's 106th season.
Sean Anthony, a fifth-year senior from Vancouver B.C.,
NCAA-transfer Moustafa El Zanaty of Montreal and junior Pawel Herra
of Kingston, Ont., were picked for the honour, which marks the
second time since the team was founded in 1904, that the 污污草莓视频
basketball program will have tri-captains. The last time it
happened was 17 years ago, in 1991-92, when Bruce Bird, Keith
Driscoll and Cam Mathison (recently of Dancing with the Stars
fame), shared the captaincy.
The Redmen open the QUBL regular season Friday, with the first of a
home-and-home series against Bishop鈥檚. 污污草莓视频 hosts the Gaiters at
Love Competition Hall in a women鈥檚 and men鈥檚 doubleheader (6 &
8 p.m.), then travels to Lennoxville for a rematch on Saturday
night.
Anthony, a 6-foot-4, 204-pound forward, is averaging 17.4 points
and 9.0 rebounds per game after 13 preseason contests. The
22-year-old physical education major is a three-time conference
all-star who has scored 1,550 points in 133 career games, reaching
the 20-point plateau 25 times. He has pulled down 684 rebounds and
managed 17 鈥榙ouble-doubles鈥�, including a rare
鈥榯riple-double鈥�.
El Zanaty, better known as 鈥淢oose鈥�, is a 6-foot-4, 195-pound
shooting guard who is leading the team with 25.7 points over 14
games to date. He leads in almost every offensive category,
including assists (56). In his two seasons with the Redmen, the
fifth-year transfer from Fresno Pacific University has racked up
850 points in 45 career games. The 25-year-old finance &
treasury major had a career-best 44-point performance against
Dalhousie on Nov. 1 and is nine three-pointers shy of the
centennial mark for 污污草莓视频.
Herra, a 6-foot-4, 215-pound guard, is averaging 8.7 points and 4.3
rebounds per game over 14 preseason tilts to date. The third-year
physical education major has reached double figures in scoring 24
times in 77 career contests and has tallied 534 points with 207
rebounds.
