T-Wolves play Royals, Eagles. You Win Some, You Lose Some.

By: Mel Bostrom

Opening night for Varsity
Basketball started last
weekend, November
10th and 11th, with a
good start. Both women’s
and men’s teams won
their games against the
Kwantlen Eagles. With
the CNC gym _ packed,
Dawn Perry started the
evening with the
National Anthem.

The women’s team start-
ed with the lead in the
first game of the night
and never gave it up. At
the half of the game, the
Timberwolves were
leading 33-15. Half time
was the time for the
Junior Grizzlies, with the
showcasing of future tal-
ent from a group of
young girls.

The second half was all
UNBC, with many
turnovers from Kwantlen
and UNBC dominating the
offense, it was no doubt
that the T-Wolves would
win.

Leading scorers for UNBC
were Nicole Ross with 15
points, Laura Foster 11
points, and Christina
Neufeld 11 points.

The men’s team carried
over the women’s
momentum, by taking
the first 2 points and

Kwantlen taking the
early lead, but with some
foul trouble the _ T-
Wolves didn’t look back.
At the half with the score
47-43 for UNBC,
Kwantlen always keeping
it close.

The second half started
with the usual fast paced
game that the T-Wolves
always play. The final
score 89-85 for UNBC.
Leading scorers for UNBC
were Dana Larsen with
25 points, Brent Sevigny
16 points and Ted
Cowley 15 points.

Friday night was also the
introduction of the offi-
cial UNBC Mascot
“Timmy” the T-Wolf I
don’t actually know if
that’s his name, but we
can all believe the guy in
the Wolf costume, right?
Saturday night was
against Douglas, the
Women lost a_ hard
fought game, 70-65 in
Overtime. While the men
lost a close game, 74-71.
Sorry, I forgot to get
leading scorers, my bad.

This weekend the teams
are going to be in
Kamloops against the
Cariboo Sun Devils. Good
luck to them.
