Athletes of the Week - January 27, 2026
Female Athlete of the Week
Congratulations to our female athlete of the week!
Juliana Hajduk - WBB
Juliana Hajduk was the perfect teammate this past weekend, doing what she could to keep her teammates motivated and energy high through two competitive games against the St. Mary's Lightning. She stepped up through the week with her consistent presence on and off the court demonstrating her leadership abilities. The third year post finished the weekend with 15 points, 10 rebounds, six assist and two blocks!
The Lions are heading into a bye-week before taking on the SAIT Trojans, hoping to repeat their success from November.
Congratulations Jules!
Male Athlete of the Week
Congratulations to our male athlete of the week!
Paulo Cuesta - MBB
Paulo Cuesta could not miss Saturday night when he set an Ambrose University Program Record for most three-pointers made in a single night. Not only did the second year guard make nine threes, shooting 82 per cent beyond the arch, he set a second Ambrose Program Record with 48 points! Cuesta was facing pressure on all areas on the floor from brining up the ball, to mid range floaters,, to driving the basket. No amount of body contact could stop him.
This weekend was a career high for Cuesta, with a total 66 points over 59 minutes of play. He sits 8th overall in three-point percentage and third in assists.
Congratulations Paulo!
