The York University Lions men's basketball team returns to the court this weekend, looking to capture some momentum and secure a pair of much-needed wins. It will be a challenging stretch for the Lions as they prepare for a double-header against two of the province's strongest teams.
On Friday evening, the Lions travel downtown to face a formidable Toronto Varsity Blues squad at 8:00 pm. York will be hungry for a comeback after falling 92-78 in their first meeting this season.
The action continues Saturday evening as the Lions return home to host the TMU Bold at 8:00 pm. Seeking redemption after an 87-61 loss earlier this year, York will need a clinical performance to overcome another high-ranking OUA opponent. A crucial factor for the Lions will be Jeremiah Kwarteng, who currently ranks fifth in the conference with 21 steals and will be vital in slowing down these powerhouse offenses.
Fans can catch the Friday away game live on OUA TV and tickets for the Saturday home game at the Tait McKenzie Centre can be purchased HERE.
