History

QUICKLY

The University of Regina's women's basketball team had a massive fourth-quarter comeback and took out UBC by a 60-53 score on Friday night in Vancouver.

HOW IT HAPPENED

UBC led for the vast majority of the low-scoring contest, and took its largest lead of the game after a Hailey Counsell bucket put the Thunderbirds in front 46-36 with seven minutes to go in the fourth.
But the momentum changed from there. UBC only got one more field goal in the next six minutes following Counsell's layup, and in the meantime the Cougars reeled off a 21-2 run with Zoe Hartmann scoring 10 of those points.
The huge run turned UBC's 10-point lead into a 57-48 advantage with under a minute to go. The Thunderbirds hit a late triple to get to within five, but Jade Belmore sunk a pair of free throws on the ensuing possession to end any chance of a UBC miracle.

NOTES

Cara Misskey led the Cougars with 19 points and also put up 6 assists and 4 rebounds. Hartmann also finished in double figures in scoring with 12 points.
The Cougars (11-2) remain in first place in the Canada West standings. Another win tomorrow would lock up a Canada West playoff berth with three weekends still remaining on the conference schedule.
