MATE CHAMPIONSHIPS 2016


try ut;


On the open side we saw traditionally strong programs Toronto and Manitoba threaten for the title and we saw an exciting upstart program in Laval make a name for itself. According to Laval’s head coach, Felix Marceau, this has been a long time coming. He, alongside some friends and teammates have been working to combine players coming out of high school, CEGEP and other universities into a legitimate University of Laval squad. The first time team turned heads winning the bronze medal. Marceau said this year isn’t the goal; it’s about development to consistently have a strong team. In the women’s division, Queen’s and Toronto were the clear one-two respectively but a number of other teams made big strides this season. The Western Mustangs are a team that looks poised to make a run soon and depending on player retention, it would surprise no one if Carelton surged into the top four and potentially battled for a podium spot next season.
