The 5-foot-11 forward posted back-to-back double-doubles and helped the Blues to a pair of road wins, including a victory over the No. 1-ranked VIU Mariners. Briggs scored 12 points, pulled down 11 boards and added two blocks, a steal and an assist in their 61-55 win at VIU. She followed up the next night with 14 points while going 8-for-8 from the free-throw line and grabbed 10 rebounds in a 90-42 win at CBC where she also had three steals and three assists.

Campbell scored in double digits each night while providing his usual stellar defence on the ball this past weekend. The fifth-year business student had 12 points including two from beyond the three-point arc to go along with three assists and two steals in a loss at VIU on Friday. He topped that with a season-high 18 points the next night in a win at CBC where he also had a season-high seven rebounds.
