The UNBC Northern Timberwolves have a little payback on their minds.
When the UNBC men's basketball team last clashed with the Capilano University Blues, Nov. 26 in North Vancouver, the Blues romped to an 80-55 victory. The Timberwolves will get another shot at the Blues Friday night at the Northern Sport Centre and will look to extend a winning streak in the PACWEST Athletic Association to six games. The UNBC men haven't lost in league play since Dec. 2 when they dropped an 84-77 decision to the Vancouver Island University Mariners.
Since the Christmas break, the T-wolves have focused on getting the ball up and down the floor much more quickly and that has resulted in the success they are currently enjoying.
"We're playing at a little bit of a higher tempo, which has made a big difference for us," said UNBC head coach Todd Jordan. "We're getting a lot more easy buckets in transition and we've just had some guys that are starting to have it click for them."
