Robson Commits to Tigers for 2026-27.

Hailing from East Hants, NS, the 6'0 forward will bring a physical presence in the paint and the ability to put down points with a constant work rate.  

Robson most recently competed with Armbrae Academy where she helped her team wil silver at the CAIS tournament. Before this, Robson played with RNS, where she won silver at AA provincials and bronze at the CAIS tournament. Robson also competed with Preston Elite and Fury, where she averaged a double-double for the last three seasons. 

In 2025, Robson helped her team secure a gold medal at the Crown Tournament where she was also named MVP. In the 2022-23 season, she won team MVP. During her grade nine season, she won rookie of the year at HERH. 

 
Off the court, Robson is an Honor Roll student and is a member of the Principal's List. She will be studying marine biology in the fall. 

Joining the Tigers is fulfilling a childhood dream of Robson's as she used to watch the Tigers play growing up. 

"I chose Dal because I want to play at the highest level I can and be able to compete every day. I grew up looking up to the Dal basketball team going to AUS Championship weekends with my family and hoping to be there one day." 
 

Robson has roots within Dalhousie as her mother graduated from Dalhousie with her law degree.  
 

Robson has expressed her excitement in joining the Black & Gold this fall. 
 
"I am extremely excited to get to be a tiger next year and am looking forward to the opportunity to continue to play and compete at a highest level, getting to work hard and be challenged every day," Robson said. "Playing at the next level has always been a dream of mine and I'm so grateful to make that dream become a reality." 

She added that her dream was inspired by her father, her biggest supporter and role model, and expressed gratitude for the opportunity to learn from Coach Tanya Mackay as she looks ahead to the upcoming season. 

Coach Tanya McKay shared her team's newest recruit. 

"A strong and athletic forward, Maggie brings a physical presence in the paint. She is a reliable rebounder with great hands on catches and finishes around the rim, and she competes on the defensive end with toughness and effort," McKay said. "Maggie's athleticism, work ethic, and ability to impact the game in multiple ways make her an exciting addition to our program." 
 

The women's basketball program continues to build towards AUS success for the 2026-27 season.
