The 'Wolves started hot out of the gate leading 20-8 and 35-20 after the first and second quarters. Brock was playing without last season's CIS Rookie of the Year Didi Mukendi and this year's favorite to win the same award Clinton Springer Williams.
Yoosrie Salhia led a balanced Thundewolves attack with 14 points 8 rebounds thought Lakehead was out-rebounded by Brock on the offensive glass. With both Mukendi and Spring Williams expected back in the line-up tomorrow night, the team must do a better job boxing out and cleaning the defensive glass and containing Brock's dribble penetration.

L.U. Finishes Weekend Sweep of Waterloo
The team battled hard over the weekend to earn two hard-fought and tight games at home against the Waterloo Warriors. Like much of our efforts over the season we did not play our best for the entire 40 minutes on either night but found enough guys willing to tough it out on the defensive end to keep us in the game to the 4th quarter.
Andrew Hackner, Jamie Searle, and Joe Jones all provided some clutch shooting while Yoosrie Salhia was in double-digit rebounds both night. Greg Carter held Waterloo All-Star Cam McIntyre to under 18 points total over the two games (his average per game coming into the weekend was over 18ppg).
