Kamloops hooper Gobiel plays critical role for 8th-ranked UFV Cascades
KAMLOOPS – A little over four years ago, Maddy Gobiel was playing in the Fulton Cup at the Tournament Capital Centre. It’s a new floor at the TCC, but for Gobeil, playing in Kamloops is a familiar experience.
“It’s always good,” Gobiel tells CFJC Today. “It’s nice to get to play in front of a home crowd, some friends and family.”
Gobiel may go down as one of the top basketball players to come out of a South Kam program that has produced some exceptional players. She helped guide SKSS to back-to-back provincial titles in 2018 and 2019, and was named tournament MVP both of those years.
