DAL AC RAMS - Athletes of the Week:

Women: Laura Gauthier (Equestrian) & Abi Bonnington (Soccer)

Laura Gauthier (Equestrian) – Laura took home first place this weekend at the UPEI competition in W/T/C (Walk, Trot, and Canter). Direct quote from her Assistant Coach Kara McCalla “She made that tank of a pony look great and made it look easy in the process.”

Abi Bonnington (Soccer) – Abi scored a phenomenal goal in Dal AC’s huge win vs STU. Her goal came off a free kick from 30 yards out perfectly placing a ball over the defenders, the goalie and under the cross bar.

Men: Mohamed Camara (Soccer)

Mo came through offensively this weekend with a goal in each game (one to put the RAMS up early vs UNBSJ and the other to keep it close (vs STU) until the end). He has been working hard since joining the team and great to see that effort is paying off on the score sheet.
