Ingrid Khuong and Kyree Thompson named UPEI Panthers Source for Sports Athletes of the Week

Charlottetown, PEI (November 17, 2025)—Every week, UPEI Athletics and Recreation recognizes student-athletes for their achievements and contributions to their respective sports. The UPEI Panthers Source for Sports Athletes of the Week for November 10–16 are Ingrid Khuong (women's basketball) and Kyree Thompson (men's basketball).

 

Khuong is a first-year sustainable design engineering student from Québec City, Quebec. During the November 15 game against Acadia University, she set the tone in the second-half surge, spearheading a defensive effort that sparked a 47-19 run, powering the Panthers to an 80-61 victory—their fifth straight. She capped the night with an impressive line of eight points, 13 rebounds, five assists, two steals, and a block.

 

"Ingrid is currently leading the AUS in offensive rebounding, and she leads our team in rebounding, blocks, and assists, and is second in steals," said Matt Gamblin, UPEI Women's Basketball Panthers head coach. "We haven't seen someone impact the game in so many ways since Panther great Carolina Del Santo. Ingrid's impact is undeniable and totally based on grit and toughness."

 

Thompson is a fourth-year arts student from North Preston, Nova Scotia. He delivered his best performance of the season when the Panthers needed it most. In the November 15 matchup with Acadia University, UPEI turned to Thompson off the bench, and he answered, matching a career-high 29 points with four rebounds, three steals, and an assist to steer the team to a 70-67 win.

 

"Kyree was outstanding on Saturday and gave us a big boost offensively," said Darrell Glenn, UPEI Men's Basketball Panthers head coach.
