UNB STATS:
Daniel Quirion (Moncton, NB) 28 pts. 5-9 from 3pt. range
Jordan Irvine (Riceville, NB) 15pts
William McFee (Northbridge, Australia) 10pts
Coach's Comments: Our game plan was simple in this one. No uncontested 3’s.
Dan Quirion had his best game in a V –RED uniform with 28 points. Our guard play and defense were a big part of the team’s success against the preseason number 8 in the country.
UNB 49 vs Carleton 88 L Saturday Oct. 23 4:00 p.m.
UNB STATS:
No one broke double figures
Rebounding; UNB 22 Carleton 45
Coach's Comments: Our effort level was very good in this game, but poor execution coupled with Carleton”s 3point shooting and gang rebounding put this one away in the second quarter. Carleton’s Phil Scrubb went 7-9 from 3 and the Raven’s out rebounded us 45 to 22.
UNB 78 vs SMU 77 W OT Sunday Oct. 24 11:00 a.m.
UNB STATS:
Alex DesRoches (Dieppe, NB) 13 Rebounds
Dan Quirion 29 points
Lonzel Lowe (Brampton, ON) 15 points and 8 Rebounds
Rebounding: UNB 52 St. Mary’s 53
Turnovers: UNB 10 St. Mary’s 9
Coach's Comments:
We established an inside game early as Lonzel was able to collect a number
of key fouls and score to take some pressure of the backcourt. We contested the
3 point shot very well as St. Mary’s went 5-27 from behind the arc. A good win for our team this early in the season.
UNB Team Record: ?League 0– 0 Exhibition 4–5 Overall 4-5
Next-Up: The Reds travel to St.FX for the X tip-off where they will face St.Mary’s Friday Oct.29 at 6:00 p.m. in Antigonish.
