Spacek will pursue a degree in Health Sciences at Simon Fraser.
"Michelle has been on one of the top teams in the province for several years," said head coach Bruce Langford. "She is the best three-point shooter on the best shooting high school team. She is extremely competitive and puts in quality time to work on her athleticism, strength and skill. Our league requires players who have some fire and she has it."
