Mar 1, 2016

OTTAWA (CIS) - There are no changes at the top this week in the CIS national rankings as McGill (women's basketball) and Carleton (men's basketball) all hold on to their pole position.

In women's basketball, the top-ranked Martlets (14-1) close out the regular season on Saturday with a home tilt against UQAM (9-5), which sits second in the RSEQ standings. McGill extended its winning streak to 11 straight conference games over the weekend with a 70-36 domination of Bishop's.

In men's hoops, the Ravens (16-3) wrapped up league play this past weekend with convincing road wins over Laurentian, 87-67, and Nipissing, 68-39. The reigning five-time CIS champions open the playoffs at home on Saturday against an opponent still to be determined.
