The U-Sports Men’s Basketball Final 8 was also hosted in Halifax from March 8th-10th. After conquering the Atlantic provinces, the Dalhousie men’s team played against universities from across the country. After beating University of British Columbia in the quarter finals, the Tigers fell to the eventual champions, Carleton University, 76-65 and had to settle for a consolation game where they lost to Ryerson University 84-66.
