Last Meetings
 
The Lions and Gaels have played twice this season with Gaels winning both matches in convincing fashion. They first met in November at the Tait McKenzie Centre when the Lions were able to win only one set. In January, the Gaels swept the Lions at the Athletics and Recreation Centre (ARC) in Kingston, Ont.
 
The last time these two teams met in the OUA quarter-finals was two season ago, when the Lions beat the Gaels in a five set thriller at the ARC, 23-25, 25-22, 22-25, 25-16, 18-16. Ray Szeto (Sutton, Ont.) led the attack with 26.5 points, on 24 kills.
