Coming off a win in their home opener last weekend, the Heat look to build an early-season winning streak as they continue their three-game home stand to open the year.

Last weekend, fourth-year midfielders Alyssa Scott (North Vancouver, B.C.) and Sydney Kolodziej (Kelowna, B.C.) scored a pair of goals to defeat the Thompson Rivers WolfPack 2-0, giving the Heat an early leg up in the race for the Presidents' Cup.

UBCO enters play this weekend having won two straight regular season contests against the Cascades and will be looking for their first-ever win against the U SPORTS perennial powerhouse Spartans. Both UFV and Trinity Western will be playing their first games of the 2024 season this weekend.

Fresh off their first win of the season, the Heat will search to bring back six points from their road swing up north as they take on the Timberwolves (0-3-1). In last season's match-ups against the Timberwolves in Kelowna, the Heat split the weekend falling 2-1 in their first match before getting a comeback victory of 3-1 to close out their 2023 regular season.

The Heat tallied four points last weekend to move into fourth place in the Pacific division standings. They drew their matchup against the UFV Cascades and closed the weekend with a victory against the TWU Spartans thanks to a late goal from fourth-year forward Zack MacInnes of Kelowna, B.C.
