Milestone Watch
Chris Ross (90) sits tied with Rhys Elliott for fourth all-time in UNBC three-point field goals made. His next make will move him alone into third on the all-time list.
Evgeny Baukin's 23 points during Friday's clash with Alberta marked a new single-game career high for the Russian forward and a season-high among all UNBC Timberwolves.
Rookie forward Will Keyes (9) is already only seven blocks shy of a spot on UNBC's top 10 all-time list for career blocks. Daniel Stark currently sits 10th on the list with 16 which he accomplished over the span of 64 games. Keyes has already posted nine blocks in only six career Canada West appearances.
