Dairy Farmers of Manitoba Athlete of the Week

The Tire Recycle Rural High School Athlete of the Week is Jamie Sherritt of the Souris Sabres basketball team.

This 5’7” forward led her team to the tournament championships at Steinbach Christian, and the Sabres Shootout in Souris.  She was an All-Star in Steinbach and named the MVP at Souris. She leads her team with 17.4 points, 8.1 rebounds, 4.1 assists, and 3.2 steals per game.  Coach Trever Penner states, “Jamie has put countless hours into the development of her game, not only on the court but in the gym as well. She has evolved into a leader that leads by example on the court while providing guidance to others at practice and off the court as well. She is involved in organizing activities for the team to participate in and always has time to help both her teammates and coach with anything away from the game.”

This grade 12 student maintains a 90% average, while also participating in badminton.
