Winning both weekend match-ups with the Trinity Western Spartans, it was the second consecutive weekend the Dinos were victorious over a top ten seeded team, although Calgary still… Continue reading Dinos give Spartans a spanking
At 2-14, the Trinity Western Spartans were all but the conference patsies going into last weekend’s matchup with the Dinos women’s basketball team (that honour was reserved for the winless Brandon Bobcats). Suffice it to say that little was expected from the lowly Langleyites.The Spartans lived up to their reputation, dropping 65-44 and 84-54 blowouts… Continue reading Spartans pray for the pain to stop
