Carleton 83, McMaster 74

The Ravens broke away late to defeat the Marauders in Hamilton after the game was tied after 3 quarters. Carleton's pair of veterans, 6'8" Kevin McCleery and 6'0" Mike Kenny both were very instrumental in the win despite playing fewer minutes than normal due to foul trouble (teams combined for 49 fouls as both benches were dismayed at numerous calls). McCleery had 30 points on 14-22 shooting from the floor in only 23 minutes while Kenny added 14 points. 6'5" freshman Tyson Hinz also had a productive 16 points in only 13 minutes before fouling out. As per usual, 6'6" Keenan Jeppessen had 22 points and 8 rebounds but 7 turnovers for Mac, which was without 6'3" impact freshman Victor Raso, out with a hand injury. 6'6" Cam Michaud, playing on a bad ankle sprained in last night's loss to Ottawa, had 17 points and 8 rebounds for Mac in only 20 minutes. 6'7" freshman Ryan Christie had 5 points and 5 rebounds in 19 minutes before fouling out. Both Christie and Marauders Head Coach Joe Raso took fourth quarters technicals while it was still a game in an affair that had was foul-filled and tough.

Christie....a technical in the closing minutes? Is this guy worth it?

It was a very very weak technical, which is why Raso gave it to the refs and got his own.

Doesn't matter..you don't put your team even close to that situation given the game is close and not decided yet!!! And it doesn't justify Raso's technical..the kid is a walking team killer....
