It's four consecutive victories for the Brock Badgers men's basketball team after they defeated the No. 3 ranked TMU Bold 82-76 at the Mattamy Athletic Centre in Toronto on Sunday night. Leading all scorers was Heyes, who notched 24 points, while shooting an impressive 6-for-12 from the three-point line. Michael Matas also finished in double digits with 10 points and led all Badgers with seven rebounds. After a tight 21-19 first quarter went the way of the Bold, the Badgers fought back. They outscored the Bold 25-20 in the second frame to take a 44-41 lead, while holding the hosts to a measly 27.8 field goal percentage. Carrying a slim 63-62 advantage after 45 minutes of action, the Badgers scored 19 points in the final quarter and used stifling defence to keep the Bold to their fewest points in a frame at just 14. The Badgers were deadly from the beyond the arc, shooting at a 42.3 percentage compared to just 25.9 per cent from the Bold.
Up next, the Badgers will host the Windsor Lancers on Friday, Nov. 14 at 7:30 p.m. at Bob Davis Gymnasium, followed by another home battle with the Western Mustangs for the Throwback Jam theme game on Saturday, Nov. 15 at 8 p.m.
