OCAA NUMBERS CRUNCH

TORONTO - A look at stats and figures from around the Ontario Colleges Athletic Association (OCAA).

1 - National ranking of the Humber Hawks men's volleyball team, as announced by the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) this week. Humber (13-1) has won 10 straight in regular season play, having dropped just one set in nine matches.

66 - Number of stuff blocks Durham fifth-year middle David McMann (Elmvale, Ont.) has so far during the OCAA men's volleyball regular season. He is three shy of tying the all-time single season record of 69, set by Seneca's Kanitha Boranprasit and Humber's Carter Walls during the 2000-01 season, and tied by St. Clair's Corey Cole in 2009-10.

5 - Number of points Durham fifth-year guard Erin Emery (White Rock, B.C.) is from 1,000 in her OCAA women's basketball career. Emery would become just the third OCAA player to crack the 1,000-point barrier, joining Natasha Thombs (1,178) of Seneca and Melinda Coker (1,115) of Seneca and Mohawk.

37-35 - Set score in Loyalist's 3-1 (25-23, 35-37, 25-22, 27-25) win over La Cite on Jan. 29. Not surprisingly, the marathon match helped Keith Marier (Ottawa) build on his OCAA regular season record kill and point totals with 25 and 27, respectively. The La Cite second-year power now has 277 kills and 305 points in 2011-12.

35 - Number of points scored by Mohawk fifth-year guard Aminu Bello (Hamilton) in a 85-73 win over Fanshawe on Jan. 28. Bello is first in the OCAA West region averaging 23.5 points per game. Mohawk (9-4) has won six of seven games, and are currently in third place in the OCAA West region standings.

8 - Number of stuff blocks by Seneca second-year middle Mariah Johnson (Sarnia, Ont.) in a 3-1 (22-25, 25-23, 25-17, 25-20) win over Durham on Feb. 1. She also added nine kills for a game-high 17 points. Seneca (9-7) has won four straight, improving its chances at a post-season berth in the OCAA East region.

25 - Number of offensive points earned by Fanshawe first-year right side Harrison Connell (London, Ont.) in a 3-2 (25-17, 19-25, 28-26, 22-25, 15-12) win over Sheridan on Feb. 1. The 20 kills and 25 points were his best single game totals of Connell's OCAA brief career. Fanshawe improved to 10-5 with the win.

17 - Number of rebounds by Fleming-Peterborough second-year centre Alex Holland (Peterborough, Ont.), including 11 on the defensive end of the court, in a 79-72 win over Loyalist on Jan. 31. Holland is the leading rebounder for the Knights averaging 8.7 per game. The win ended a six game losing streak for Fleming (6-9).
