Abbotsford, BC - The University of the Fraser Valley Cascades completed the weekend sweep of the TRU WolfPack with an 86-23 victory on Saturday at the UFV Athletic Centre. 

How it happened:
It was a similar script to the previous night, as the Cascades jumped out to an early 27-6 lead in the first quarter. 

The Cascades cruised from there, outscoring the WolfPack 59-17 in the final three quarters.

Maddy Gobeil led the way for the Cascades with a game-high 19 points to go with four rebounds and four assists. Esther Allison also had a tidy night off the bench for UFV, picking up a game leading nine rebounds in addition to 10 points. 

Megan Rouault paced the WolfPack with 10 points, while Maggie Fehr and Josie Mackie each tallied four. 

Quotable:
Cascades forward Esther Allison

"We have been trying all week to be a gritty team and get back into the motion of playing the Cascade way, and I think we definitely did that this weekend. It was nice to see what our team can do." 

"I want to remember this feeling. I have been wanting to play better myself this whole year, so being able to do that tonight was nice and I can bring it in to next weekend."

Where they sit:
The Cascades' win improves their record to 11-3 on the season, while the WolfPack fall to 1-13 this year.

The Cascades next action will come on the road against the University of Winnipeg on January 27 and 28, while the WolfPack will now return home to take on the Victoria Vikes next weekend.
