The Dogs downed the hosting Thompson Rivers University Wolfpack 3-2 (25-21, 20-25, 19-25, 25-22, 15-8) and 3-0 (25-17, 25-18, 25-2) on consecutive nights to mark only their second and third wins of the 2011-12 campaign.

Led by middle blocker Geoff Zerr, the Huskies were able to come back from a two-sets-to-one deficit in the weekend’s first match and win it 15-8 in the fifth and final set.

Zerr, who recorded 11 kills in the first game, was hot in the second match as well. His nine kills, seven digs and three blocks allowed Saskatchewan to take the game in just three sets, which included a dominant 25-2 win in the final set.

The Saskatchewan men move to 3-13 on the year while TRU falls to 3-15.

The Dogs women’s team, who also faced TRU, were on the opposite end of the broom as the Wolfpack swept them 3-1 (20-25, 25-12, 34-32, 21-25) and 3-0 (25-22, 25-20, 25-20).

They now sit with a 0-16 record on the year while the Wolfpack are 8-10.

The Huskies men’s and women’s teams will host the University of British Columbia Okanagan Heat at home Feb. 3 and 4.
