Game log: Saturday, Sept. 11 - 90 min, 3 goals, 4 shots on goal in 3-1 W vs LET
It was the first career Canada West goal for the first-year forward, finishing off a cross from Kareena Kassam. Less than 10 minutes later, Danielewicz found the scoresheet again with a shot from the top of the box that sailed over the Lethbridge goalkeeper. The Calgary native made it a hat-trick and sealed the MRU victory by finishing off a rebound in the 52nd minute.
Danielewicz will move forward as the CW nominee for the U SPORTS Athlete of the Week.
