Port Moody's Kelsey Binns canned 16 points to help the Simon Fraser Clan to an 83-61 triumph over the Manitoba Bisons in a Canada West university women's basketball game Wednesday in Burnaby.
Kristina Collins of Port Coquitlam dished out a team-high seven assists for the Clan, who improved to 6-3 on the season.
SFU led 44-32 at halftime.
"It's always nice to get that first win after the Christmas break," said Clan assistant coach Courtney Gerwing, a former Clan player and, like Collins, a Riverside Rapids high school grad. "It's tough to be sharp after a week off.
"We weren't great defensively, especially in the first half. We talked about that at halftime and I think we improved in the second half."
