The women’s soccer team kicked off the home portion of their calendar on Wednesday night in front of a sold-out crowd at Matt Anthony Field and did not disappoint
Carleton Ravens
“Ottawa’s a great place to ski, so we just have to convince them to go here and not go to Carleton.” —Sheila Kealey, head coach, U of O Nordiq ski team.
“That’s why you come here. You want to be able to play against the number-one team in the country, you want to play in an environment like this in front of 10,000 people.” —Brandon Robinson, Gee-Gees fifth-year guard.
“They’d won the last three Capital Hoops, and it was big for us momentum-wise heading into the last stretch of the regular season, and a big step towards that bye.’’ —Andy Sparks, Gee-Gees head women’s basketball coach.
“We’ve got a young team, so we’ve really got to hold it down in the first quarter, and if we can come out of that alive we have a shot.” — James Derouin, Gee-Gees head men’s basketball coach on the upcoming game vs. Carleton.
The red horses took on the Carleton Ravens at Minto Sports Complex for their fourth and last meeting of the year.
This marked the third time the two teams met, and the first since the Alert Cup. The season series stood tied at one going into this match-up.
In honour of the year in review, here are the top five moments for University of Ottawa teams, athletes, and alumni.
An early third-period goal from Carleton’s Adam Chapman sealed the victory, and the Gees went home scoreless through 60 minutes for the first time in 2018-19.
On Nov. 16, the University of Ottawa’s Minto Sports Complex hosted the Carleton Ravens in the first women’s Colonel By Classic.
