The phrase 91裸聊视频楽ister Act91裸聊视频 is taking on a new meaning for the UBC Okanagan Heat women91裸聊视频檚 basketball team.

Kate Johnson, the younger sister of current Heat players Emma and Olivia Johnson, has signed on to join the Canada West program starting next fall.

, the Immaculata senior said joining two of her siblings with the Heat will give her a good kickstart to university ball.

91裸聊视频淚 think that by already knowing the players and having siblings on the team is a massive advantage,91裸聊视频 says the soon-to-be Heat point guard. 91裸聊视频淚t eliminates the fear of being on a team with people I don91裸聊视频檛 know.

91裸聊视频淚 am already comfortable in that environment and have played with various members of the team on multiple occasions,91裸聊视频 she added. 91裸聊视频滺aving my sisters on the team will push me to be better every day because we are so competitive.91裸聊视频

Johnson has a had successful athletic career at Immaculata Regional High School in Kelowna,winning seven provincial titles and five Catholic schools titles in basketball, soccer and volleyball.

In her Grade 11 season, her second with the Immaculata senior team and first as a starter,Johnson was named the MVP of the 2016 Mustang Classic and a second-team all-star at the B.C.AA provincial tournament.

91裸聊视频淜ate is a true ambassador of the game and will have an immediate impact with our program,91裸聊视频滿eadows. 91裸聊视频淪he is one of the most explosive and quick athletes in the open court and possesses a good understanding of the game.

"She will bring a great work ethic and a competitive edge. I look forward to coaching Kate and having her represent our program.91裸聊视频

Academically, Johnson is following in sister Olivia91裸聊视频檚 footsteps by enrolling in the managment program.

91裸聊视频淭his program is very group oriented which is similar to playing on a team,91裸聊视频 she said.

Sister Emma is currently in UBC Okanagan91裸聊视频檚 School of Nursing program.

As for why she chose UBC Okanagan, Johnson says her time with the Junior Heat club program was one of the determining factors.

91裸聊视频淧laying Junior Heat really gave me a snapshot of what the environment was like at the university,91裸聊视频 Kate said. 91裸聊视频淏eing coached by some of the players and the support of the coaches showed me how supportive everyone is and that the coaches really want to see you succeed.91裸聊视频

In regards to what she will bring to the Heat, the youngest Johnson sister does not shy away from recognizing her abilities including good passing skills, a clear vision of the court, setting up teammates, and defensive speed and tenacity that will be welcome.

And yes, there is bound to be some sibling rivalry.

91裸聊视频淚f I were to play one-on-one with my sisters, I am not the one who would win,91裸聊视频 she says.

91裸聊视频淲e have different talents and Olivia and Emma are both very strong defenders. Though I like to think my ball-handling could get by them once or twice.91裸聊视频
