OT: CIS Men's Basketball Elite 8

[littleD]

This weekend in Ottawa, the top university basketball teams in Canada will be in action at Scotiabank Place.

Tournament starts Friday with the quarter finals. Semi's go Saturday night, with the final on Sunday.

Friday:
12:00 - Cape Breton vs Lakehead
2:15 - McGill vs Ottawa
6:00 - UBC vs Acadia
8:00 - Carleton vs Victoria

Carleton are defending champions and have won 8 times in 10 years. Ottawa are the 3rd ranked team in the tournament.

Ottawa is the only team that has played Carleton close this year, so hopefully they meet in the final.

Ottawa u won the Bronze, and with Carleton leading 69-33 with 8 mins to go in the 4th quarter, it looks like Carleton will again be the champs.

I would have gone to the final today, but OC Transpo service seemed non-existant.

Oh well. Congrats to the dynasty.

Damn, CU is a dynasty what's that, 9 out of the last 10 years as champs? Dave Smart lives up to his name again

They lapped the second-best team in the country. How demoralizing to the rest of the CIS lol
