Game Recap: Women's Basketball | | TRU WolfPack

Young WolfPack squad battles hard in loss to Cascades

QUICK FIRE
  • They played their best basketball of the night late, but a young Thompson Rivers WolfPack women's basketball team couldn't keep up with a dominant UFV Cascades squad in a 67-32 road loss.
     
DIFFERENCE MAKERS
  • Veterans Danijela Kovacevic and Priyanca Sundher led the way for the 'Pack with nine and eight points respectively. Rookie Morgan Eichenberger stuffed the stat sheet defensively with seven rebounds, two blocks and three steals while Kate De La Mare added three blocks of her own.
  • Bernie Leda spearheaded a balanced UFV attack with 18 points. Julia Tuchscherer and Miah Schuurman both hit double digits as well with 13 and 10 points each.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • TRU hung tough throughout the first half of the opening frame, with a three-pointer from Olivia Randall making the score just 11-8 for the Cascades. UFV really pulled away in the second quarter. They outscored TRU 18-2 in the frame to lead 35-11 at the halftime break.
  • After UFV increased that lead heading into the fourth, TRU played their best basketball of the night in the final quarter. Kovacevic scored seven points as the 'Pack tallied 13 in the final ten minutes of play.
 
UP NEXT
  • TRU returns to Kamloops for a pair of home games next week. First up, they take on the TWU Spartans on Thursday night before welcoming the UVic Vikes on Saturday.
