When Lancer women’s basketball player Iva Peklova first spoke with local media, she said she had come to Windsor to win a national championship.

In a profile of the Prague native, Windsor Star sports columnist Bob Duff writes:

“Peklova began her Windsor days by delivering a bold statement. Then she helped deliver the goods.”

Read his article, “Peklova delivers the goods,” on the Star’s Web site.

Peklova and the rest of the Lancer women’s basketball team will travel to Ottawa for the Canadian Interuniversity Sport regionals with a berth to the national championship tournament on the line. Windsor will face off against Cape Breton on Friday night.
