Box Score
WINNIPEG – Earning half of her team's points, Bisons guard Nicole Konieczny caught fire as the University of Manitoba Bisons women's basketball team completed the sweep over the University of Lethbridge Pronghorns in an 82-59 win at Investors Group Athletic Centre on Saturday (Jan. 6). 
 
 
"It was a poor defensive weekend for our team," said Pronghorn head coach Dave Adams. "We need to recapture the rotations in full and half-court defence from the first semester."
 
Konieczny led the scoring for the Bisons with 41. The third-year also added seven rebounds. Her team rallied around her to gain a healthy lead over the visitors.  
 
Konieczny hardly left the floor, playing 37-minutes. Her 41 points crushes her previous career high of 25, which she earned last season. 
 
Meanwhile, 'Horns guard Zoe Dahl was her team's leading scoring for the second night in a row. She put up 15 points, while her teammate Katie Keith contributed eight and added 14 rebounds. 
 
"It was great to have Katie (Keith) back and she played well on both ends of the court in her return," said Adams about Katie Keith's return to the line after missing the final four games of the first semester due to injury
 
The Pronghorns went on a slight run to start the game's second half. They pulled within two points in the third, but the Bisons stepped on the gas to lead by 20 at the end of the quarter.
 
Next weekend, the Pronghorns will return to the 1^st Choice Savings Centre to host the UBC Thunderbirds.
