Knight’s Basketball loses a heartbreaker

On a night where the Knights (3-8) had no business being in the game after being down 20-2, the Knights valiantly fought back to make it a close match heading into the 4th all tied up.

Unfortunately the slow start cost the team and we eventually lost 88-82 against the Centennial Colts (4-7).

The team has 3 new players and are still meshing but after last weeks win against St. Lawrence, the team was pleased with the effort while trying to gel as a team.  Nathaniel Brown had another big night as well as Theon Esseboom.

We are back on the court this Friday at home as we take on the Seneca Sting. Be there, and be loud Knights fans! 

Men’s & Women’s Volleyball Team Back on the Hardwood.

It was quite a weekend at the home of the Knights, Peterborough Sport & Wellness Centre as both the Men’s and Women’s volleyball team got back on the court back to back days for the first  in the new year.

Saturday was a tough day as on the men’s side they lost a thriller 3 sets to 2 after being up 2 to 1 to the Algonquin Thunder in OCAA Volleyball . The men’s Fleming Knights volleyball team got back to their winning ways though less than 24 hours later with authority over the La Cite Coyotes winning 3 sets to 0. It was quite a way to bounce back and show some resiliency. The Knights will look to build on that win in their next match.

Unfortunately on the women’s side, we ran into two tough squads and lost both games to the Thunder and Coyotes respectively 3 sets to 0. We showed no quit getting better each set and look to bounce back this week. 

Both teams are back in action on Thursday against Durham at home with start times being 6 & 8 pm.

Catch the action!

Boruta Earns OCAA Honours

Women’s Volleyball player Zofia Boruta has been named an OCAA Star of the Week.

First-year Practical Nursing student Boruta has been given the role as Fleming’s new setter and this week demonstrated why. In a pair of matches, Zoe led the Knights in assists which allowed Fleming’s attacking players to be successful, scoring several big points and changing the moment during various moments in every set played. Off the court, Boruta has been working hard in the weight room to help her become a strong overall athlete. Boruta has become a leader on the team and will no doubt continue to help the Knights grow and be successful over the course of the season.

The Fleming Athletics and Recreation Department congratulate Zoe on this achievement. Sports are a vital component of life outside the classroom at Fleming College. The Fleming Knights represent nine varsity sports in the Ontario Collegiate Athletics Association, as well as 3 Extramural Programs. Our athletes have achieved numerous Provincial and National accolades, such as Zoe’s recognition with this award.

Well done Zoe!
