Rams basketball star joining Denmark’s Lemvig

By Will Baldwin

Ryerson Rams women’s basketball forward Sofia Paska is taking her skills to Denmark and is joining Lemvig of the Dameligaen, according to a release from Ryerson’s athletic department.

Paska is leaving Ryerson after five stellar years that include three OUA First Team, two Second-Team All-Canadian All-Star and one OUA Second Team All-Star selection.

Paska owns several program records, including most points scored (1,506), most rebounds (819), field goals made (536) and free throws made (425).

In 2017, she took home the Ryerson H. H. Kerr Trophy for Female Athlete of the Year after averaging 18.5 points and 10.4 rebounds in her third season.

The Etobicoke, Ont. native was part of the Rams first and only OUA championship back in 2016, the same year she was named to the OUA All-Rookie Team.

Paska is considered one of the best to ever dawn the blue and gold and will be joining Lemvig who finished 2-12 last season.
