Returning Saves Leader:
Brityn Hinsche: 86 Saves
Player to Watch: Brityn Hinsche, G
Coming off a sparkling 12 save performance against MRU,
Brityn Hinsche has been tremendous between the pipes for the Timberwolves this season. In her first season as the team's starting goalkeeper, the Williams Lake product has made 86 saves, many of the incredible variety. The young TWolves have been improving every game, but Hinsche will likely be busy against a Thunderbirds team that is ranked #1 in U SPORTS,
UBC Thunderbirds (9-1)

Goals Leader: Katalin Tolnai: 7 Goals

Points Leader: Katalin Tolnai: 12 Points
Saves Leader: Dakota Beckett: 29 Saves
Player to Watch: Katalin Tolnai, F
One of the most dangerous player in the country, Katalin Tolnai puts up numbers. Coming off a ten-goal, 17-point season in 2022, the Canada West First Team All-Star has seven goals and five assists in 10 games this year. The native of Toronto often finds herself in the right place at the right time, so UNBC will need to be diligent when defending Tolnai and the rest of the dynamic T-Birds attack.
