Asirit Behind the Arc

The Langara Falcons men’s basketball team will enter the PACWEST postseason as the #4 seed after finishing the regular season at 12-12.

One of their leaders all year has been Edrielle Asirit, who played in 23 games, making 13 starts.  He was great offensively shooting 36% from the field and averaging 13.2 points a game as one of the team’s most dangerous weapons.   He was also very good getting his teammates involved with 46 assists while playing tough on the defensive side collecting 30 steals.

He has had an interesting journey, now in his fourth season from Surrey.  He shares some of his awesome basketball story with Ryan Watters with a conversation that took place a couple of weeks before the season ended.

The Falcons will meet the Okanagan Coyotes in a playoff quarterfinal on March 5^th and Asirit will need to play an important role if they are hoping to advance.
