Best in Class: Jessica Tupper

Jessica Tupper was part of a pair of Okanagan Coyotes teams that went to the CCAA nationals during her stint at the College.

Last season she played a larger role as one of the first off of the bench each game, contributing in any way that she could.  She averaged just over seven minutes a game helping the Coyotes in the backcourt and playing a solid defensive role.

Off the court Jessica was enrolled in the sciences program at Okanagan College and following this past semester has decided to transfer.  She isn’t going far and is staying in Kelowna to attend classes at UBC Okanagan for the same program. 

She talks with Ryan Watters about the joys and challenges of being a student athlete along with staying involved in the Coyotes women’s basketball program.
