Life on the road wasn’t quite as comfortable for the UNBC Timberwolves men’s basketball team.
The dynamic duo of Isaak Moore and Lamine Condie combined for 57 points as the UBC Okanagan Heat slipped past the T-Wolves by a 86-74 score on Friday.
Okanagan (2-5) was red-hot from beyond the arch connecting on 12-of-27. Moore went 6-for-12 from three-point range while Moore was 4-for-5.
Turnovers were also a big story with UNBC committing 20 compared to UBCO’s 13.
Tony Kibonge led the T-Wolves with a team-high 19 points while Evgeny Baukin chipped in with 17. Miller Davies added 11 rebounds on the glass for the 2-4 UNBC.
On the women’s side, UNBC fell flat losing to the Heat by a score of 72-48.
Former Calgary Dino Lily Pink led the way for UBCO with a double-double 20 points and 10 rebounds in 31 minutes of action.
Every Heat player except for Kristen Francks recorded at least one point in the victory.
On the glass, UNBC was outrebounded 49-31. Amrit Manak and Viiktoria Filatova each had 12 points in defeat for the 0-6 Timberwolves.
Overall, UNBC went 15-for-59 shooting (25%).
Both varsity teams are back in action against UBCO tomorrow (Saturday).
