OCAA's Best of the East Battle in Scarborough

By: Anthony Santia

The Centennial Colts Men's Basketball team is looking to tie Durham in wins with a win against them. The Colts host Durham on Saturday, January 20, at 3 PM in the second game of a doubleheader.

The last time these two teams played was back in November. That game ended 85-71 Durham. Durham handed the Colts their first loss of the season in that game. Although the Colts lost the last meeting by 14 points, they were missing two of their best players, Malik Gibbs and Deandre Goulbourne. With those two players expected to be playing in the rematch, it should be a closer final score.

Look out for Husam Shallo, who is coming off a really good performance against Seneca. Husam had 13 points, 4 steals and 7 rebounds, which made him a massive threat on both sides of the court. Durham is coming off a massive win over George Brown, where the final score was 90-64.

The Colts will need to look out for Oshane Taylor-Douglas, who put up big numbers in his last game. Oshane had 26 points, 9 assists, 6 rebounds and 6 steals. The Colts are looking to even the season series at one with a win on Saturday.

Tip-off from the Athletic and Wellness Center Starts at 3PM.
