*** COUGAR PROFILE OF THE WEEK:

Brady Bolan

This week's Sault College Cougar profile belongs to Social Service Worker student and rookie of the Men's basketball team, Brady Bolan.

Bolan is only 19 years old, but is well known in Northern Ontario for his illustrious high school career at Lasalle Secondary in Sudbury.

This 6-foot-5 guard/forward gives the Cougar's men team good size, but more impressively is his speed and shooting has left quite an impression on OCAA opponents.

His athleticism stands above and beyond most 19 year-olds making him a significant weapon in the Cougar arsenal. He brings a lot of energy onto the floor which usually sparks the rest of the team and with his outside shooting, the Cougars can quickly overcome any deficit or develop a healthy lead.

"Brady adds instant scoring, he can score in a hurray and he can score in many different ways," adds head coach Thomas Cory. "He has great potential to be a leader at the college level."

Brady, along with the rest of the Cougars, are now on break and will return in January to continue their run in the OCAA West.
