Men’s Basketball

It will be back-to-back days of home games as well for the men’s basketball Hurricanes as they enter the weekend with a perfect 3-0 record after wins over UKC, MSVU and Mount Allison to start the year.  They will host the Crandall University Chargers at 8pm on Saturday night at the McMillan Centre.

The Chargers are 1-0 to start the season and sitting in third place; they were in a tightly contested second game of the season last Sunday with Mount Allison before the game was stopped in the second quarter due to unfit court conditions.

The Hurricanes will then take on the UNBSJ Seawolves on Sunday at 4pm at the McMillan Centre.
