KAMLOOPS — The Thompson Rivers University WolfPack men’s basketball team played to a nail-biter of a finish last night (Feb. 9) at the TCC against the visiting Mount Royal Cougars.

With four seconds left in overtime, fourth-year guard Evan Smith shot a game-winning three-pointer to send TRU to an 81-79 overtime victory over Mount Royal.

The game was the third time this season that WolfPack MBB has gone to overtime.

Meantime, the TRU WolfPack women’s basketball team played to an 80-46 defeat at the hands of the Mount Royal Cougars last night.

First year player Sydney Vollrath led the way offensively, knocking down a trio of three-pointers en route to 11 points.
