Consistency has been a buzz word around the Clippers this week. Nanaimo had a poor outing against Powell River last week, then a fantastic game against Coquitlam, and a disappointing showing to wrap up the week versus Vernon. A win against Trail would put the Clippers back to the .500 mark and give Nanaimo it’s first win of the season against an Interior club. The Clippers are 0-3 against the Interior so far this year and 4-2 when facing the rest of the league
