THUNDER BAY – Jon Kreiner’s off-season recruiting success continues.
The Lakehead Thunderwolves women’s basketball coach on Thursday announced the OUA team had landed highly sought-after prospect Tiffany Reynolds.
"Tiffany Reynolds is a fierce competitor,” Kreiner said in a release issued by the team.
"She is tough, very strong, has great size at her position, is a strong defender and is great in transition. She adds size to our small back-court line-up and stabilizes our defence. Tiffany has been very successful at every level she's played. She is a good student, has a very strong work ethic and is a very welcomed edition to the Thunderwolves family."
A former member of the Canada Elite team in the CYBL, in 2015 she averaged 16.5 points per game, including a 42-point effort.
She was a two-time junior athlete of the years at Jarvis Collegiate, then in 2016 took home athlete of the year honours at Oakwood Collegiate.
High school coach Handel Kipp said the Wolves will like what they’re getting in Reynolds.
“Tiffany is up-tempo and will bring fast and entertaining transition skills to the floor. She’s also a girl who defends from end to end on the court and will put her body on the line and do whatever it takes to win, Kipp said.
“Tiffany will impact her team right away and will be a fan favorite! Thunder Bay just got a gem.”
