Sport: Basketball

Maria Suriani has been a cornerstone of the women’s varsity basketball team at Humber since her rookie year in 2009.

This 2012–2013 season will be her fifth with the Hawks squad that she has captained for the past three years. Maria credits basketball with teaching her countless life lessons, including discipline, leadership, respect, and work ethic, while also allowing her to travel across North America.

Despite her love for the sport itself, she says that the best part of being a varsity athlete has been the Humber Athletics family and its close-knit atmosphere.

Maria will graduate from the Sport Management program this year and plans to work with at-risk youth to give them an opportunity to compete in sports and gain the same valuable lessons and experiences that she did.
