Male Basketball Athletes of the Week
Moeiz Athaya – Langara Falcons
It was an “all-time” performance this past weekend at Langara as Moeiz Athaya became the PACWEST’s All-Time leading scorer in men’s basketball.
On Friday, Athaya had a huge double-double for the Falcons. After falling behind early Athaya willed his team back into this one leading by his strong play on the court and ultimately helped his team comeback to win. He finished with 18 points and a game high 14 rebounds. Then on Saturday, he rewrote the history books and became the PACWEST All-Time scoring leader as he finished the game with 30 points along with nine rebounds and had a steal. With his scoring performance, Athaya now leads the PACWEST with 1,461 points in the regular season, surpassing former Douglas Royals guard Grant Campbell who had 1,459 points.
