Jacob DoerksenÂ
Few athletes left a mark as indelible as Jacob Doerksen on the Trinity Western men's basketball program. Doerksen, who graduated in 2011, was a force on the court, a leader by example, and a name forever etched in the history of Spartan men's basketball.
Â
After transferring to TWU from the University of Victoria, Doerksen had an immediate impact on the Spartans program. In his first year in Langley, 2008-09, Doerksen was named the Canada West and U SPORTS Player of the Year. He followed that up with two more seasons in which he was named a Canada West First Team All-Star, capping his time with the Spartans by leading TWU on a historic run to the 2011 national championship final.Â
Â
Over his university career, Doerksen accomplished the rare feat of being named a five-time Canada West All-Star, including four First Team honours, helping lead the Spartans on an unprecedented run of U SPORTS success.
Â
Already inducted into the Canada West Hall of Fame, Doerksen is now a member of the Trinity Western University Spartans Hall of Fame.
