Dally, a fourth-year social sciences student, posted a triple-double on Friday night, helping the Mustangs to an 80-68 victory over the visiting Lakehead Thunderwolves. Dally finished the evening with 13 points, 10 assists, and 14 rebounds to record the triple-double while also adding two blocks and four steals. The Bright’s Grove native had a strong game the next night, putting in 18 points, nine rebounds, and six assists as Western’s fell in overtime to Lakehead 83-80.
“Laura Dally is one of those players who is a pleasure to coach and she is always looking to improve her game,” said head coach Brian Cheng. “The rare triple-double is a testament of her abilities when she is supported by her teammates. One of her teammates had to give Laura the ball for her to score. One of her teammates had to score when Laura passed the ball. All of her teammates had to help her out by boxing their checks out for Laura to grab rebounds. I am so proud of her achievements on and off the court!”
