UNB  81 vs  Brock 90 L Saturday Oct. 16 5:00 p.m.

Alex DesRoches (Dieppe, NB) 21pts

Daniel Quirion (Moncton, NB) 16pts

Pts in the paint: UNB 44 Brock 28

22 pts of Turnovers and 10 fastbreak pts

Rebounding UNB: 34 Brock 28

Coach's Comments: I really thought that it was two evenly matched teams, but our failure to contest some crucial 3 pt shots near the end of the game and a lack of quality offensive possessions down the stretch definitely were the determining factors in the outcome of the game. Its disappointing when you out score someone in the paint and win the rebounding war, but lose due to lack of defensive consistency.

 

UNB 76 vs UPEI 88 L Sunday Oct. 17 4:00 p.m.

UNB STATS:

Alex DesRoches 14pts

Lonzel Lowe 13pts 8 Rebounds 

Dustin Anthony 10pts

Pts in the paint: UNB 44 Brock 28

22 pts of Turnovers and 10 fastbreak pts

Rebounding: UNB 34 Brock 28

Bench scoring: UPEI 33 UNB 18

Coach's Comments: When you spot a team a 17 point lead

it comes down to whether you’re mentally ready to play or not. We were

not ready play at the start of this game. Full marks to UPEI, they outhustled, out ran and out executed us for 2 and half quarters.  It was a 3 point game midway through the forth, but UPEI put it away with some timely free throws and execution.

 

UNB Team Record: ?League 0– 0 Exhibition 2–4 Overall 2–4
