OTTAWA GAME NOTES
- Major stat leaders:
- The Gee-Gees are on the hunt to claim second place in the RSEQ, but after suffering a loss to McGill earlier in the season, Ottawa won't be able to take the top spot even with a win on Saturday.
- Last season, Glenn Roy scored 17 points against the Carabins, putting up four converts in the matchup.
- A win against the Carabins would put the Gee-Gees at 5-1. That would make it the winningest season for the Gee-Gees since joining the RSEQ.
