Better Red than Dead
As we've entered the break, may as well get ready.
The 58th annual UCup Tournament will be held in Halifax at the Scotiabank Centre (formerly the Metro Centre) on March 12-15th.
This will be an interesting tournament as the host is also battling for the conference pennant & championship. If Acadia can win their way into the best-of-3 AUS Championship, a best-of-3 Bronze medal 'Host' series will be played between AUS Semi-final losers. The 'host' might be just as tough a matchup for an out-of-town visitor as any other team in the tournament - it will be interesting.
If the current standings were the end result; the tournament would look like;
AUS=Acadia & UNB
CW= Alberta & Saskatchewan
OUA=Carleton, Toronto & UQTR
Host=SMU
Seeds: ALB(1), ACD(2),CAR(3),TOR(4),UNB(5),USK(6),UQTR(7) & SMU(8)
Round 1
ALB(1) vs SMU(8) / TOR(4) vs UNB(5) & ACD(2) vs UQTR(7) / CAR(3) vs USK(6)
Still lots of hockey to be played though.
