BRANDON, Man. – For the second time in three outings, every Dinos player scored as the No. 4 University of Calgary women's basketball team improved to 5-0 on the season with a 107-43 rout of Brandon University Friday evening from the Healthy Living Centre.

Calgary finished the night shooting 48.8 percent overall and eclipsed the century mark on the scoreboard for the first time in a conference game since a 107-54 win over Mount Royal back on Feb. 1, 2018.

Louise Rouse led all players with 24 points on 9-14 shooting to go with seven rebounds.

Pollyanna Storie connected on five three-pointers and tallied a season-high 21 points, while Lilia Skumatova also scored in double figures with 10 points.

Myriam Kone finished just shy of a double-double with nine points and career-high 11 rebounds. 

Faith Clearsky led the way for Brandon with eight points and five rebounds.

After a slow start to the game by both squads, it was Calgary that found its shot first. Mya Proctor and Jordan Kemper both hit three-pointers in the early going, but it was the Dinos defence that was the real difference maker in creating a 22-2 lead after the first 10 minutes. 

This was already the fifth time the Dinos have held an opponent to single-digit scoring in a quarter through their first five games.

Back-to-back triples by Storie to start the second swelled the lead to 30-4 with just over three minutes gone in quarter number two. After the Bobcats were able to get in an offensive rhythm to cut the deficit to just 32-16, Calgary responded with a 17-2 run to close out the frame for a 49-18 lead at the break.

It was all Dinos in the third, outscoring Brandon 33-13 in the frame - spearheaded by a 24-2 run spanning over five minutes to build an 82-31 lead after three.

Calgary then had its best shooting performance of the game in the fourth, connecting on 60 percent (9-15) of its attempts to outscore the Bobcats 25-12 in the final frame to close this one out with an exclamation point.

The two teams are right back at it Saturday at 4 p.m. MT, with the game streamed live on Canada West TV.
