Heartbreak for ‘Pack as Heat win in five

QUICK FIRE
  • The Thompson Rivers WolfPack men's volleyball team had a pair of match points but couldn't but the UBC Okanagan Heat away in an incredibly close 3-2 (22-25, 25-14, 19-25, 28-26, 15-11) loss Friday night.
DIFFERENCE MAKERS  
HOW IT HAPPENED
  • The WolfPack racked up 15 kills to UBCO's six to take the first 25-22. Howard had six kills, including the set-clincher, as the WolfPack ended the first set on a 5-1 run.
  • After UBCO rebounded to dominate the second 25-14, the WolfPack took back the lead in the third. An Ibbetson kills put the finishing touches on a 9-2 run to start the frame to help TRU take control early and see out the set 25-19.
  • The WolfPack came oh so close to securing the match in the fourth. A Howard kill twice gave TRU match point at 24-23 and 25-24 but the Heat were able to fight off both of them. Mason Sodaro had a kill down the stretch but UBCO was able to force a fifth after winning the fourth 28-26.
  • UBCO was able to keep that momentum going in the fifth, jumping out to a 6-0 run to start the set. The WolfPack did their best to fight back with Fulljames scoring a pair of kills but the 'Pack couldn't complete the comeback in a 15-11 defeat.

NOTABLE
  • The WolfPack had 59 kills to UBCO's 48.
  • Fulljames' ten kills were a new career-high for the Prince George product.
  • Walker Sodaro set a new season-best in both assists (45) and digs (12).
 
UP NEXT
  • The WolfPack will get the chance to take down the Heat tomorrow evening in a game scheduled to start at 4:30 p.m.
