He was also two of three from the charity stripe and grabbed nine rebounds.

Earlier in the week (Jan. 13), Gilmore scored 10 points in a 93-66 win over the Waterloo Warriors, to finish the week with a 21 points-per-game average over the two games.

A a day full of success for the Marauders at long distances, Kaitlyn Pansegrau enjoyed one of the team's best performances to bring home one of its three gold medals from the Don Wright Team Challenge in London on Saturday. The third-year runner crossed the finish line first, in a time of 3:03.38, in the women's 1500m event to top the field at Western.
