This week’s Supplement King Male Athlete of the Week is Michael Otoo of our men’s basketball team.
Michael had a great week for the Tommies in a pair of fourth quarter come from behind victories over UNBSJ and Crandall University. Against the Seawolves he finished with 14 points, 8 in the 4th quarter, and Saturday in Moncton he continued his fourth quarter heroics with 11 points in the quarter on his way to a team high 16 points.
“Mike came off the bench and sparked us to a couple of very big fourth quarter come from behind wins this week,” said Tommies head coach John Hickey. “This energy starts on the defensive end of the floor from taking charges and forcing turnovers and translates into transition baskets and knocking down threes. Mike has been a very consistent threat for the Tommies this year and is hitting his stride at the right time.”
Otoo shot 73% from behind the three-point line on the week and is now connecting on 43.4% of his three point attempts this season, 2nd in the ACAA among players with more than 20 attempts.
