A defender and a forward earn Athletes of the Week recognition in week five of the 2025 season.
Isabella Bolognese is the Indigo Park Canada Capilano University Blues women's Athlete of the Week.
The third-year defender from Burnaby was again a key piece of the Capilano back line, playing all 90 minutes in both games as the Blues earned a pair of draws against Douglas.
Bolognese was tasked with marking Douglas’s top offensive weapons and held them in check for the weekend, including Sunday’s clean sheet.
Her physical play and battle level were evident all weekend, helping Capilano keep its playoff hopes alive.
Zach Gabrys is the Indigo Park Canada Capilano University Blues men’s Athlete of the Week.
The rookie striker scored in both games in the Blues home-and-home weekend against Douglas.
Gabrys’ first goal of the weekend drew the Blues level with the Royals in the first half as he used his body to protect the ball before rocketing a left-footed blast home to make it 1-1 in the 39th minute.
On Sunday at home, with his team down a goal in the first half, Gabrys was opportunistic, putting home a loose ball off a free kick to even the score on the way to a 4-4 draw. Gabrys now has three goals in his first PACWEST campaign.
