What happens when you cross a pack of wolves with a Dinosaur? Apparently, you just get a Dinosaur that is a little less hungry. The Dinos women’s basketball team paid a visit to the Thompson Rivers University WolfPack Jan. 27-28 and came home with a belly full of laurels. “I really like where we are… Continue reading 100 points easy

Dinos and b-balls and bears, oh my!
Weather reports indicate there was an excessive amount of heat radiating from the Jack Simpson Gymnasium Jan. 13-14. The Dinos men’s basketball team rubbed sneakers with the University of Alberta Golden Bears for the second time this season. This time the friction took place on home soil. The finished product was an electric weekend capped… Continue reading Dinos and b-balls and bears, oh my!
Streak: broken. Hopes: still truckin’
While the Dinos women’s basketball team may not have played to the best of their abilities Jan. 13-14, the University of Alberta Pandas lacked the ability to snag both wins. The Dinos were 11 games into a winning streak, and improving each weekend, before the Pandas paid their annual visit to the Jack Simpson Gymnasium.… Continue reading Streak: broken. Hopes: still truckin’
Ballers on cloud number 11
While there’s no evidence that in the wild a Dinosaur would devour a Bobcat, a controlled experiment in the Jack Simpson Gymnasium has indicated that would be the case. In other words, the Dinos women’s basketball team didn’t cut the Brandon University Bobcats much slack in their games Jan. 6-7. Friday night’s game played out… Continue reading Ballers on cloud number 11
Montana makes Dinos moan morbidly
The Brandon University Bobcats bob-cut the Dinos men’s basketball team deep Jan. 6-7 as the weekend’s results were not to plan. Friday night left fans optimistic as the Dinos took to the floor with cohesion and energy. They jolted the Bobcats by shooting 50 per cent from the field and 88 per cent from the… Continue reading Montana makes Dinos moan morbidly
Whoop! There it is, I thought you knew
Like Much Music’s Dance Mix ’93, the Dinos women’s basketball team continue to prove they’re the top of the crop. They went into the holidays on a six-game winning streak and, after a quick turkey dinner, returned to the University of Calgary still hungry for more. Dinner was served in the form of the annual… Continue reading Whoop! There it is, I thought you knew
From foul trouble to double-double
The Dinos men’s basketball team has a little more reason to strut about campus this week: they gave everything they had and eventually came out on top Dec. 3-4. True, they’re 3-7 in league play with a half-season of work ahead of them, but with shooting averages like they had these games, it will be… Continue reading From foul trouble to double-double
Chris Cringle brings early gift for lady ballers
On a scale of one to style, the Dinos women’s basketball team are currently rated ‘just shy’ but are pushing new boundaries each week. They met the University of Lethbridge Pronghorns for pair of games–one at home and one in Lethbridge–Nov. 25-26. The Dinos came out strong at home on Friday, earning an early nine-point… Continue reading Chris Cringle brings early gift for lady ballers
Lethbridge match Dinos’ game in pair of umm…
The Dinos men’s basketball team came up just short of a weekend sweep once again in a face off with the University of Lethbridge Pronghorns Nov. 25-26. The U of L came back hard against the Dinos on Saturday after being mercilessly defeated on Friday night. In the end, home was where the win was… Continue reading Lethbridge match Dinos’ game in pair of umm…
Ballers split
The old adage “you win some, you lose some” vindicated itself yet again in the Dinos men’s basketball team’s play Nov. 18-19. Travelling to the University of Manitoba and playing the Bisons before a crowd of about 100 (hey, it is Manitoba), the Dinos proved they are worth every penny by starting the weekend off… Continue reading Ballers split
