WolfPack sign South Kam alumnus; provincial all-star
KAMLOOPS —The Thompson Rivers University WolfPack recruitment effort has swept up another all-star and athlete of the year for the Women’s Basketball team.
Ally Lincoln, a 6-foot power forward who graduated from South Kamloops Secondary in 2017, was named athlete of the year when she was in Grades 10 and 12. Lincoln was also all-star at the Provincials, where her team placed second (junior) and fourth (senior).
“I am excited to be back on the court playing on a university basketball team in my home town in front of family and friends. I am grateful to the TRU coaching staff for getting the opportunity to play a high level of basketball for a team that competes hard every day. I am looking forward to being a great teammate and contributing to the team in any aspect they need it,” she said.
Lincoln aspires to become a phys-ed teacher and to coach basketball herself some day. In the meantime, the WolfPack is excited that she is bringing her defensive and team-building skills to TRU. She’s not the first in her family to hit the courts for the WolfPack; her sister Danya was on the Women’s Basketball team in 2016-17.
