MBB: Huskies Drop Series Against Calgary

SASKATOON, SK – After a narrow, three-point win for the Calgary Dinos on Friday evening, the two teams returned to Ron & Jane Graham Centre Court at the Physical Activity Complex for a rematch. The Dinos headed back to Alberta with a weekend sweep of the Huskies, after a 78-61 win over the Huskies.  

THE HIGHLIGHTS 

  • The beginning of the game was very similar to Friday's match up, the two teams going almost basket for basket in the first. The Dinos created a slight gap after a 12-point streak before the end of the quarter.
  • Calgary kept the energy high going into the second quarter, extending their lead to a 14-point difference (39-25). Dylan Lutes would lead the Dinos with 11 points after the first half.
  • The Dinos dominated the third quarter, at one point holding a 27-point lead over the Huskies. Tyrese Potoma kept the Huskies hopes high with a big three, ending the scoring drought. He ended the quarter with a steal and a fast-break layup off a long Dino pass. 
  • In final efforts, the Huskies found new energy after a lackluster third quarter, going on a 10-point scoring run to start the fourth. Despite their efforts and outscoring the Dinos 20-18 in the final quarter, the Dinos would not relent, taking home the win. 

THE STATS 

  • Calgary's Nate Petrone led the game in scoring with 19 points.
  • Tyrese Potoma had the lead for the Huskies in scoring with 17 points, all scored in the second half.
  • Chan De Ciman (SSK) and Javier Ramos-Yzquierdo (CGY) had nine rebounds each.
  • Calgary had four players shooting double-digits: Nate Petrone (19), Javier Ramos-Yzquierdo (14), Dylan Lutes 913), and Spencer Roberts (10).
  • Saskatchewan had 23 fast break points, and Calgary with 10.  

THE STANDINGS
