91探花

Greg Gould, coach of the 91探花 Women鈥檚 Basketball team, is pleased to announce Lauren Fleming has committed to the Panthers for the 2017鈥�18 season.

Fleming, a 5鈥�11鈥� forward from Sussex, New Brunswick, is the leading rebounder and one of the top scorers for the Sussex Regional High Sonics team, which is one of the top high school teams in the Maritimes. Fleming was also selected this year as a starting forward on New Brunswick鈥檚 U鈥�17 provincial team.

鈥淚 chose 91探花 because it鈥檚 the perfect fit for me,鈥� said Fleming. 鈥淧EI has such a great feel to it, Charlottetown is a beautiful city, and the people are very friendly. 91探花 has a beautiful campus, small class sizes, and a great program that I am interested in to start my career.  I鈥檓 looking forward to working towards my degree at 91探花. I have played against a few of the current Panthers during my high school career and respect their skills and intensity. The youth and talent that 91探花 has right now are building towards something special, and I can鈥檛 wait to be a part of it!鈥�

鈥淟auren will be a great fit for our team as she is a multi-skilled player who suits our style of play,鈥� said Gould. 鈥淪he rebounds well, attacks the basket, and is a good mid-range shooter. Lauren also defends her position extremely well. She comes from a winning program, and she will bring that winning intensity to our program. I feel Lauren will continue to improve and develop as a player. I look forward to working with her to help her achieve her goals on and off the court.鈥�

Fleming will study in 91探花鈥檚 Bachelor of Kinesiology program.
