Tarun Saroya, a first-year guard, averaged 20 points per game over the weekend to lead the men's basketball team in scoring in both contests. In UBCO's 94-85 overtime victory over the UFV Cascades, the Kelowna, B.C., native set a UBCO rookie single-game record with a career-high 27 points, shooting 8-for-13 from the field and 9-for-14 from the free-throw line while adding seven rebounds and three steals. In overtime, Saroya was a key contributor as the Heat outscored the Cascades 12-3, scoring five points while controlling the glass with four boards, both team highs in the frame. The night prior against the UBC Thunderbirds, he scored 13 points while also leading the team in steals with four. His 40-point weekend has increased his season average to 16.3 points per game, good for second on the team.
