The Ryerson Rams Athletes of the Week are presented by Boston Pizza at Front & John

Jahmal Jones is the Boston Pizza Male Athlete of the Week after leading the Ryerson Rams men's basketball team to a 74-71 victory over the Ottawa Gee-Gees in the OUA Quarter-Finals on Saturday night. Jones recorded a game-high 22 points after shooting 8-of-13 from the floor, and also brought down a team-high eight rebounds and added three steals and three assists in the victory. The former OUA all-star and Mississauga native helped the Rams clinch a berth in the OUA Final Four for the first time in over a decade with the win. Ryerson will travel to the University of Waterloo this weekend, and are taking on the CIS No. 2-ranked Lakehead Thunderwolves in the OUA Semi-Finals on Friday night at 6:00 p.m. The contest will be nationally-televised live on theScore.


After leading her team to the OUA Quarter-Finals with a 71-66 win over Queen's last Wednesday in their OUA Playoff match-up, Angela Tilk has been named the Boston Pizza Female Athlete of the Week. The Welland, Ont. native picked up a double-double in Kingston on Wednesday, scoring 24 points and tallying a game-high 19 rebounds which helped the women secure a date with first-place Ottawa on Saturday night. Her 24 points and 19 boards were both a season-high for the fourth-year guard, who was also recognized as a second-team OUA East all-star on Monday morning. The Rams' season ended with a loss at the hands of the Gee-Gees on Saturday.
