We look back in celebration of Therese Quigley, one of the most respected athletic leaders in all of U Sports, as she retires from over 30+ years in Canadian sports. Though a volleyball player by trade (shewas a member of one of Western's most impressive volleyball teams from 1971-1975) Therese made her impact on Canada's basketball history as a former President and Board Member of Canada Basketball and through her continued service to Canadian sports at the collegiate level.

"Therese's thoughtful stewardship of Canada Basketball through a critical transition period laid the foundation for the organization's revitalization and growing success in recent years." - Wayne Parrish, Co-Chair, Canada Basketball, Board of Directors.

"She was a fantastic Canada Basketball Board member who was extremely supportive of staff and actively engaged in Board business. As an AD, I remember seeing her get to know all of the athletes personally and was very active in her role.  I've always considered her a highly respected and amazing role model for females in sport management."  - Denise Dignard, Director, Women's High Performance
