KAMLOOPS, B.C. – The Thompson Rivers WolfPack made it a clean sweep Saturday night, dispatching the Calgary Dinos 3-0 (25-23, 25-20, 25-17) to split their weekend series at the Tournament Capital Centre.

BOX SCORE

The decision in the men's volleyball match left both Calgary and TRU with 1- 1 records after the opening weekend.

Aleks Saddllemyer was the kills leader for TRU with seven in 11 attempts with three digs and a block assist. Mike Hawkins had 18 assists.

Calgary was led by Chris Hoag for the second straight night. The fourth-year, left side from Sherbrooke, Que. had eight kills in 27 chances with four digs and four block assists.

“We were disappointed with our performance tonight,” said Dinos head coach Rod Durrant, now into his sixth season. “TRU played very well, and I give them a lot of credit. They passed the ball well and shook off some inconsistency in the first set. They were by far the better team tonight.”

Jay Blankenau had 21 assists for the Dinos.

The WolfPack now gear up to face the always tough Alberta Golden Bears in their home opener weekend, while Calgary goes home for their home opener against the University of Manitoba next weekend.
