2023-24 campaign comes to an end for young WolfPack squad

QUICK FIRE

KAMLOOPS – A young Thompson Rivers WolfPack women's basketball team wrapped up their 2023-24 season with a scrappy effort on the road before bowing out 71-40 to the UVic Vikes in Victoria.

DIFFERENCE MAKERS

In the final game of her university career Kelsey Cruz led the way for TRU with 14 points in 28 minutes of action. Jocelyn Orr knocked down a pair of three-pointers to add eight points of her own while Olivia Randall and Priyanca Sundher both chipped in with six points apiece.
Tana Pankratz had a big night for UVic with 19 points and 12 rebounds. Abigail Becker joined her with a double-double of her own after finishing with 13 points and 11 boards.

HOW IT HAPPENED

After a slow start to the game saw TRU trailing 25-7 through ten minutes of action, the 'Pack rebounded to play their best basketball of the night in the second quarter.
Cruz and Sundher both had three points in the frame and a jumper courtesy of Olivia Randall with 30 seconds left gave TRU a 12-11 edge in the quarter.
The comeback wasn't meant to be however as Pankratz and the Vikes were able to use a big advantage on the boards (54-35) to take the victory.

NOTABLE

TRU finishes the regular season with a record of 2-18.
With nine rebounds on the night, Kate De La Mare finishes third in the program record books for single season rookie rebounds with 148.
Olivia Randall's 20 three-pointers on the season is enough to slot her in eighth in the program's rookie record books.
29 blocks gives De La Mare the most dominant rookie season ever in program history and the third-most for any player to don TRU colours.
