Player to Watch: Daniel Zadravec, G
Coming off a Canada West All-Star campaign in 2022, a lot was asked of Daniel Zadravec in the 2023 season. Playing behind by-far the youngest lineup in the conference, the senior goalkeeper has been busy. He leads Canada West in saves and has been a galvanizing leader as the TWolves look to make a late run at the conference playoffs. Against a stingy Heat side, every shot counts, so the Victoria product will need to be strong between the pipes.

UBCO Heat (3-9)
6th in Pacific Division Standings
6 Goals For (13^th in CW)
23 Goals Against (10^th in CW)
Goals Leader: Malachi Emerson: 2 Goals
Assists Leader: Bigattini, MacInnes, Lechelt, Montagliani: 1 Assist
Points Leader: Matteo Bigattini, Malachi Emerson, Zack MacInnes: 2 Points
Saves Leader: Ronan Woodroffe: 48 Saves 

Player to Watch: Zack MacInnes, F
Never the biggest player on the pitch, Zack MacInnes instead uses his slight frame to give defenders fits with his shiftiness and dribbling ability up the wing. The Kelowna product has started ten game for his hometown Heat, providing his signature speed and grit to a UBCO side that is always looking to improve its offensive output. UNBC will need to limit the third-year's impact by taking away his time and space.
