Box Score
Waterloo was seemingly in control of their second last game of 2016 holding the lead for the majority of the contest but a pair of late three's would give Nipissing the 83-78 win on Friday night at the PAC.

The Warriors held a five point lead into half and extended it to a 10 point lead but the Lakers kept coming back at the black and gold.  The Warriors and Lakers finished with almost the exact same field goal percentage (41.6% vs. 41.3%) but the difference came from the free throw line as Nipissing went to the charity stripe 22 times, with 13 of those dropping in.  The visitors also corralled more rebounds with 45 boards compared to 38 for Waterloo.

David Ramon Prados (Madrid/Virgen de Atocha (North Platte College)) had an impactful game off the bench, finishing with a team high 15 points going 5-for-7 with four three-pointers.  Justin Hardy (Waterloo/Sir John A. Macdonald Secondary) and Nedim Hodzic (Waterloo/Sir John A. Macdonald Secondary) both put up 12 points while Simon Petrov (Waterloo/Sir John A. Macdonald Secondary) had 11 and Mike Pereira (Kitchener/Resurrection Secondary) had 10.  Pereira was also a monster on the boards with 12 rebounds in the loss.

Nipissing's attack came primarily from Jordon Campbell who had a game high 19 points while teammate Marcus Lewis was just as good with 14.

Waterloo will look to close out 2016 on a winning note tomorrow night when they host Laurentian at 8pm.  The game can be viewed live on OUA.tv.
