“Everybody is playing great hockey—now we’re going to face a tougher team, so we’ll have to make sure we keep our game simple, fast, and hard, but we are confident in us.” —Kevin Domingue, Gee-Gees forward.
“We want to make sure that we can win that first game. In this type of playoff format, it’s not like a best of seven where you have a few games to come back.” —Mathieu Newcomb, Gee-Gees forward.
“Usually in the playoffs, what it comes down to is good teamwork, special teams, and goaltending. I know we have good teamwork and good goaltending, but special teams are something you’ve constantly got to work on.” —Patrick Grandmaitre, Gee-Gees head men’s hockey coach.
After a two-win weekend at home against Queen’s and RMC, the men’s hockey team took to the road for a two-game trip to Northern Ontario, taking on the Nipissing Lakers on Friday, Nov. 9, and the Laurentian Voyageurs on Saturday, Nov. 10.
In their first-ever regular season weekend at Gee-Gees Field, the University of Ottawa women’s soccer team added both a win and a loss to the record books on Sept. 15 and 16, respectively.
“We were dominant, and it showed on the scoreboard in the shots and in possession time.”
In their first regular season matchups, the Gee-Gees looked strong as they came away with one draw and one blowout win against Nipissing and Laurentian, on Aug. 25 and 26, respectively.
The Gees took the first step towards a national title on Saturday, Feb. 25 when they faced off against the Laurentian Voyageurs in the OUA quarterfinal.
After back-to-back victories against Lakehead University, the Gees came out and played a solid 60 minutes against a struggling Laurentian team to propel their record in the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) conference to 11–7–3.
