The men’s basketball team opened their regular season with a big test on Friday night at Montpetit Hall. The Gees faced the No. 6 ranked program in the country, the Wilfred Laurier Golden Hawks, in what promised to be a heated affair.

The game got off to a quick start. Less than 15 seconds in, U of O guard Gage Sabean opened up the scoring on a jump-shot, prompting an immediate response from Guelph to tie it 20 seconds later.
