BOX SCORE

Playing at UFV's Envision Financial Athletic Centre, the Cascades stuck with the Vikes over the first 20 minutes of the game – they were within 20-17 and 37-30 at the quarter breaks. The third quarter, though, was all UVic. The visitors built a 24-8 edge in the frame, and cruised from there.

The two teams meet again on Saturday afternoon at the EFAC, with tip-off set for 3 p.m.

Cascades sophomore centre Sukhman Sandhu notched a double-double with 12 points and 10 rebounds, and Mark Johnson tied him for team-high scoring honours with 12 points of his own. Daniel Adediran gave the hosts a spark off the bench, scoring nine points on 3-of-4 shooting from the field.

Taylor Montgomery-Stinson paced a balanced UVic attack with 16 points, and Jordan Charles chipped in with 13.
