Josh Lovestone

Josh Lovestone - 10

Josh is a college junior at the University of Calgary. He is a 6'4" wing player that has the shooting range of a 2 guard and the inside moves of a post player. This makes for a great mix of options for the Trojans offense. A 2004 graduate of Salmon Arm Secondary, Josh previously played for the University College of the Cariboo in Kamloops, BC and SAIT in Calgary, AB. Was a member of the UCC Sun Demon team that went 17-1 during the regular season and then swept through both the BCCAA and National Tournaments. Josh won a CCAA National Championship in 2005, defeating Grant MacEwan in the final.

MALE ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Men's Basketball - Josh Lovestone

Josh Lovestone, a first year SAIT Trojan from Salmon Arm, BC, enrolled
in the Pre-Electrical Program, showed why he is a key ingredient to the
success of the Trojans Men's Basketball squad this season.  In game one
of the weekend series versus Briercrest on Friday, Lovestone put up good
numbers; 7 points, 9 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal in the 75-65 win.
During game two on Saturday afternoon Josh lit up the Clippers for 24
points and pulled in 8 rebounds enroute to an 88-57 victory.  Proving
his strong offensive capabilities on the scoresheet, Lovestone's biggest
contribution to the Trojans comes at the defensive end of the court; his
unleashed passion for the game will help lead his team throughout the
year.

SAIT Trojans finished the regular season ranked 10th in the country and 2nd in the ACAC South Division behind Mount Royal (#2 in the nation). They will match up with the NAIT Ooks in the first round of ACAC playoffs. SAIT defeated NAIT twice this year by good sized margins but a gritty performance in game one of the best of three saw NAIT take the two point victory.
