OCAA NUMBERS CRUNCH

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

25 - Number of curling teams representing 11 schools set to compete at the OCAA curling championships hosted by Sault College beginning Thursday in Sault Ste. Marie, Ont. The most hotly contested title will be the women's championship, with 10 teams competing. Teams will compete in men's and mixed competitions as well.

3 - Number of sets of siblings that will compete at the upcoming OCAA badminton championships hosted by Redeemer University College beginning next Friday in Ancaster, Ont. Sisters Julie and Janelle Koopmans (Chatham, Ont.) will represent host Redeemer, while Renee and her brother Simon Yip (Markham, Ont.) will compete for defending champion Humber. So will Tracy Wong (Richmond Hill, Ont.), with her brother Mark playing for George Brown.

24.7 - Average number of points scored per game by Sheridan fourth-year guard Nakia Arthur (Brampton, Ont.). With 346 total points and four games remaining, Arthur is on pace to break the all-time OCAA women's basketball single season record of 433 points set by St. Clair's Debbie Cowgill during the 1979-80 season.

48 - Number of three-point field goals scored by Fleming-Peterborough second-year guard Kelly Killoran (Sarnia, Ont.) to set a new OCAA women's basketball single season record. The old record of 45 was set by Loyalist's Sara Maybee in 2008-09. Hot on Killoran's trail is Sheridan's Nakia Arthur who has scored 43 times beyond the arc. Killoran has two games remaining.

2 - Number of times Humber third-year right side Terrel Bramwell (Mississauga, Ont.) has earned 40 points in an OCAA men's volleyball match. No other OCAA student-athlete has hit the 40-point plateau since volleyball changed its rules in 1999. Bramwell is the OCAA leader in points per set averaging 7.0.

21 - Combined number of wins of Humber (11-2) and Sheridan (10-4) in OCAA men's basketball. Algoma (12-3) visits both teams this weekend with first (and second) place in the OCAA West region on the line. The top two teams earned automatic berths into the OCAA men's basketball championship at Algonquin College next month.

70 - Number of stuff blocks by Durham fifth-year middle David McMann (Elmvale, Ont.) to set a new single season record in OCAA men's volleyball. The previous record of 69 was set by Seneca's Kanitha Boranprasit and Humber's Carter Walls during the 2000-01 season, and later tied by St. Clair's Corey Cole in 2009-10.

0 - Number of losses by Cambrian and Humber entering the final week of the OCAA women's volleyball regular season. Cambrian has one game remaining at home against Seneca on Sunday, while Humber hosts Sheridan on Friday then visits Niagara on Wednesday.
