Sports Hall of Fame Inductee

Skill, intensity and passion defined Sharon Sandy’s Concordia basketball career. Her elite athleticism and exceptional speed made her one of the most versatile and recognized guards in the Quebec Student Sports Federation (QSSF) and the Canadian Interuniversity Athletic Union (CIAU).

Following the 1990–91 season, Sharon earned QSSF Rookie of the Year honours, received the Laurie Brodrick Award as Concordia’s Outstanding Female Freshman Athlete, and was named to the CIAU All-Canadian Rookie Team. She continued to excel throughout her university career, earning three consecutive QSSF All-Star selections and being named Sun Life Athlete of the Month in April 1992.

A dedicated captain, Sharon led her team to the 1994 QSSF provincial title and secured a place at the CIAU Nationals in Calgary. That same year, the team was recognized by Concordia as Female University Team of the Year.

After graduating, Sharon played professionally in Switzerland and has since coached extensively.

In 2012, she was inducted into the Champlain College Hall of Fame in recognition of her outstanding contributions to post-secondary basketball. In 2021, Sharon returned to Concordia as an assistant coach, bringing her experience, leadership and passion for the game back to the program.
