Not to be outdone was TWolves guard Adaiah Tupas-Singh who notched five of her 10 points in the second – three of which came off a terrific drive to the hoop which resulted in an 'and 1.' Hanna Busic, Amrit Manak and Rebecca Landry all supplied three's, and the TWolves went into the break trailing by single digits at 42-33. 
• The best offensive quarter of the night for Lethbridge came in the third as they went 10-of-20 from the floor en route to a 26-point effort. Piper Dobbelsteyn had six points, two rebounds, and two assists while five other Pronghorns found the scoresheet.

But rookie Viktoriia Filatova continued to make her mark, supplying six more points to her totals in the third while Adaiah Tupas-Singh added five more.
• Defensively the TWolves answered positively in the final period by holding Lethbridge to just six field goals on 20 attempts. Seven of the 14 Lethbridge points came from forward Abby Graves while once again it was Filatova supplying the spark for UNBC with five more points. Sophia Fuller, Halle Tiessen and Amrit Manak also found paydirt in the fourth for the Timberwolves as they continued to grind and hustle despite only having a three-player bench. 
• When the final buzzer sounded, Lethbridge was able to celebrate their seventh victory in a row, an 82-62 final. Yet even despite the loss, the underlying numbers for UNBC were impressive in defeat. The TWolves finished the game 10/11 from the free-throw line, and they drilled 10 threes over the course of the night.
