MSVU Mystics vs. UKC Blue Devils |
|
|
The ACAA leading MSVU Mystics (10-2) are looking to rebound from their second loss of the season when they visit their Halifax rivals the UKC Blue Devils (8-4). The Mystics, No. 6 in the CCAA, are hoping to defend their ACAA title but UKC, St. Thomas and Holland are all having competitive seasons. The Blue Devils returned home with a pair of strong road wins last weekend, but they will be tested against MSVU on Saturday and the second place Hurricanes (9-3) on Sunday. |

Vanier Cheetahs vs. Nomades de Montmorency |
|
|
The Vanier Cheetahs (13-1) haven’t lost since October and their opponents, the Nomades de Montmorency (10-3), only have two losses over that same stretch. Vanier’s record has propelled them to the very top of the CCAA Rankings, but Montmorency is not far behind at No. 9 in the country. If that isn’t enough intrigue, waiting in the wings are the CCAA’s No. 6 Dynamiques de Brébeuf (11-2), who will face the Cheetahs and Nomades next weekend. |
