SASKATOON, SK – The Bobcats extended the team's win streak with an 96-81 win over the Saskatchewan Huskies Friday night.
 
The first quarter saw a slow start offensively on both sides, but momentum picked for the Bobcats as they took a small lead to carry into the second quarter.   
 
The second quarter was filled with back-and-forth action both away with a notable number of steals racked up before the half. Brandon showed their dominance with a 60% three-point percentage to mirror the Huskies 0%. 
 
Ironically, the script flipped in the third as the Huskies held a three-point percentage of 60% and the Bobcats were 0-5 from the same depth. Alexander Dewar led the charge with ten points for the Dogs, but it was BU who carried their lead at the end of the third quarter; 64-76. 
 
Jahmal Gardener and Anthony Tsegakele took control of the closing quarter offensively – racking up 21 and 19 points respectively on the night. These two along with support from Sultan Haider Bhatti stole the show and lead to the win to open this weekend series. 
 
Dewar led Saskatchewan's offence with 19 points. Tyrese Potoma trailed close behind with 18 points. 
 
This two-game series continues tomorrow night in Saskatoon. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. at the PAC.
