The master of ceremonies this year, as HPU faculty
and staff took the opportunity to honor the school’s
Student-Athletes, was none other then “The Voice of HPU
Sports,” Chuck Miske. This year’s HPU Student-Athlete
Awards went to Basketball standout Leandro Maruoka and Pacwest
Volleyball Player of the Year Suzy Garbelotti. Maruoka, a 6’8" senior from Campinas Sao Paulo,
Brazil, joined HPU’s squad as a junior. In his first
year, he earned the best field-goal percentage on the team
and posted two consecutive double-doubles: but it wasn’t
until his senior year he began to come into his own. A starting
center, he earned three consecutive double-doubles, maintained
the best field-goal percentage, and was the second-best rebounder
in the PacWest. He also won a PacWest Player of the Week acknowledgment.
After college, Maruoka looks to take his talents abroad where
he intend to play professionally in Germany.
Part of this year’s Brazilian sweep, Suzy Garbelotti
was a key member of HPU’s 2000 NCAA II Championship squad:
Garbelloti is no stranger to honors. From humble beginnings
in Foz Do Iguacu, Brazil, she was named twice to Brazil’s
National squad. As a Sea Warrior, she earned honors in every
PacWest volleyball category as well as election to the NCAA
II All-American team. She hopes to earn her masters degree
and should have no problem as she is a success in all of her
endeavors.
An exciting edition to this year’s banquet was a plaque
presentation to the HPU NCAA II Championship Cheer Squad.
The event, deliberately casual, not only recognized excellence
but also served as an opportunity for student-athletes to reflect
on their season, their future, and the camaraderie of sports. |
