KINGSTON, Ont. (November 9, 2009) – Queen's Athletics & Recreation is pleased to announce that Kelli Chamberlain of North Bay, Ont., and Liam Underwood of Toronto, Ont., have been named the Athletes of the Week for the week ending November 8.

Chamberlain scored two goals, including the game winner, to propel the No. 3 Queen's Gaels past the Laurier Golden Hawks in the OUA Semifinal on Saturday. Chamberlain's goal in the overtime session also helped secure the Gaels a berth in the CIS Championships in Toronto next weekend. The physical and health education major now has three goals in post-season action as she also scored the game winner against Carleton in the OUA Quarter-final. Chamberlain will look to continue her strong play this Thursday at 11:00 am when the Gaels open their bid for a CIS Championship against the StFX X-Women.

Underwood was the difference maker in the Queen's Gaels victory over the McMaster Marauders in the OUA Semifinal on Saturday. The life sciences major scored two tries as the Gaels exacted revenge for last year's loss to the Marauders in the OUA Championship with a 17-8 win. Underwood and the Gaels will look to cap off their perfect season with a victory over the Western Mustangs in this weekend's OUA Championship at Fletcher's Field.
