Concordia at McGill Game on SSN Canada

The Montreal rivals meet for the second time this season in the only CIS game across the country.  Game is available on SSN Canada by following this link.

Expect Concordia to try to establish their inside game with 6'5" James Clark and 6'7" Zack Brisebois against a smaller, less deep McGill front line.  In the back court, expect 6'2" Kyle Desmarais to put pressure on 6'0" Olivier Bouchard while the battle at the "3" spot is key between 6'3" Evens Laroche and 6'3" Kyle Bernard who had a tremendous Holiday tournament at UQAM, being named to the All-Star team but quickly thereafter sustained a knee injury and his status for tonight is uncertain (game time decision).  McGill remains without 6'7" forward Nic Langley, arguably their best shooting big man, out until February with a back injury.  Stingers captured game one of this series before Christmas with a 4 point win in a game that was tied with 18 seconds remaining.  Concordia won the game on the offensive glass and by getting to the free throw line.
