"We face an old foe in Grant Landy, the former Concordia University – Portland head coach," CWU Head Coach Michael Farrand said. "We know they'll be well coached and organized. They play in the CCAA and that's one of the toughest conferences in the country. We will have to match their work rate, and style of play, and concentrate on what we do well and hopefully get the result we deserve."

PACKWOOD NETS GNAC OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Two goals and an assist earned Packwood GNAC Offensive Player of the Week honors.
 
"It's exciting to be recognized," Farrand said. "It's been awhile since we have had a player of the week. For it to be Mak in the beginning of the year is a testament to the work she put in to come back from a serious injury. She's had points, and a positive impact, in all of our outings this year."
