The University of Regina's men's basketball team's historic winning streak came to an end on Friday as the Cougars lost 94-65 to No. 7-ranked Manitoba on Friday night in Winnipeg.

HOW IT HAPPENED

• Manitoba opened up a double-digit lead in the opening quarter and extended that lead to as many as 16 points in the second. The Cougars brought it back to single digits with a two-handed dunk by Cade Mather late in the half, but Manitoba took a 54-43 lead into the break.
• The Bisons opened up the second half with three-pointers by Daren Watts and Cieran O'Hara on their opening two possessions and used a 16-1 run later in the quarter to push the lead to 30. Manitoba led 80-56 after three and surrendered just nine points in the fourth quarter to improve its conference record to 9-2 on the season.
