Three consecutive wins on the Canada West men's soccer trail was uncharted territory for the UNBC Timberwolves.
Rather than let that streak come to an end, the T-wolves made it four in a row Thursday night in Victoria.
UNBC fought off a 1-0 deficit with two goals late in the second half and beat the Victoria Vikes 2-1.
The T-wolves (4-1-2) are off to their best start in their seven-year U Sports/CIS history, solidly entrenched in third place in the Canada West Pacific Division.
UNBC trailed until the 69th minute, when rookie Anthony Preston sprung Owen Stewart on a breakaway and the midfielder tucked the ball in for his second goal of the season.
Pierre Barrafranca, an import from France, scored the winner, a curling shot from 20 yards away, at the 82:23 mark. Preston drew the assist, the first multipoint game for the 18-year-old Duchess Park secondary school graduate.
Victoria drew first blood five minutes in on a breakaway strike from Matteo Ventura - his seventh goal in eight games.
In the last four games, UNBC goalie Rob Goodey has allowed one goal. He made three saves in Thursday's game.
The T-wolves will be in Vancouver to play the UBC Thunderbirds (7-0-1) tonight (6:30) and Sunday (1:30 p.m.). The first-place T-birds have won seven straight and are ranked third in the country.
