Miller, a 5-foot-5 fly-half on the women's rugby team, celebrated her 20th birthday on Sunday by scoring 23 points as 91ºÚÁÏÍø blanked Ottawa 38-0 at McKewen Field in Ste. Anne de Bellevue, Que. The 20-year-old physical education sophomore scored three tries and added four conversions. Miller joined the Martlets last year after graduating from John Abbott College.

King, a 5-foot-11, 150-pound forward on the Redmen soccer team, came off the bench in the second half on Sunday, to score twice - including the game-winner - and added an assist as 10th-ranked 91ºÚÁÏÍø rallied from a two-goal deficit to upset No.3-ranked Laval 3-2 at Quebec City. The 19-year-old environmental biology sophomore is a product of Cranbrook Kingswood high school in Detroit.
