Sea-Hawks need finishing school, MUN men looking for first win as they host SMU
Memorial Sea-Hawks men's basketball coach Peter Benoite is concerned his team still can't seem to put together a complete game.
That, he says, has to stop.
That's probably because he knows what his team faces this weekend against the Saint Mary's Huskies.
"Any Ross Quackenbush team is going to be capable of beating any team in the league," said Benoite, whose team is looking for its first win of the Atlantic University Sport (AUS) season after four straight losses.

Gryphs fall from long range
It was a tale of two teams Friday night at the Mitchell Athletics Centre, and they were both wearing the predominantly white home uniforms of the Guelph Gryphons.

Turnovers – or a lack thereof – told the tale for the University of the Fraser Valley men's basketball team on a weekend road swing through Alberta.
On Friday night, the Cascades were charitable guests at the University of Calgary, surrendering 32 turnovers in an 80-62 loss to the Dinos. The following night in Lethbridge, the UFV men took much better care of the ball, coughing it up just eight times in an 82-77 win over the Pronghorns.

But with 16 games remaining in the Canada West regular season, head coach James Hillis does not expect that where the Cougars are (tied for sixth in the Canada West Prairie Division) is where they will end up.
