Cowell and Blake named Ontario Tech athletes of the week

OSHAWA, Ont. – Treyton Cowell (Craighurst, Ont.) of the men's curling team and Caleigh Blake (Newcastle, Ont.) of the dance team have been named the Ontario Tech athletes of the week for the period ending March 20.

OSHAWA, Ont. – Treyton Cowell (Craighurst, Ont.) of the men's curling team and Caleigh Blake (Newcastle, Ont.) of the dance team have been named the Ontario Tech athletes of the week for the period ending March 20.
 
Cowell, a game development and entrepreneurship major, was key in the Ridgebacks winning the tiebreaker to qualify for the quarter-final in the pre-game draw to the button team total. As a front-end player, his strong sweeping and judge of weight was also crucial to the confidence of the skip on his last stone, which was a difference maker in the extra end win against Trent when skip Gavin Hinton drew the four foot for the win.  
 
He also became the first Ridgeback curler to receive an OUA award, being named a second team all-star. His individual performance also helped Ontario Tech reach the OUA quarter-final for only the second time in program history, last happening in 2015.
 
Blake, a commerce major, is in her first year with the varsity dance team and has demonstrated strong work ethic, great skill and always creates a positive environment for her teammates to train. She fought hard this weekend at competition and helped her team achieve top placements.
 
Ontario Tech's student-athlete of the week award is presented by Subway located at 2069 Simcoe Street North in Oshawa.
