Eighteen months ago, on a cold, spring night, hockey died in Belleville. 534 days later it was announced that it will be revived next year.
It was shortly after 9:00PM on April 2nd, 2015, that the Belleville Bulls - a franchise with 34 years of history in the Quinte area, ceased to exist. At the final buzzer, all 3,194 people who filled the green plastic seats of the Yardmen Arena, felt like they just lost a friend. As discussed in my previous article on the release of the 2016-17 OUA Women's basketball schedule, the way in which the RPI Rankings are calculated has changed for the upcoming season.
This year the rankings will be based on regular season results against all conference teams. Previously, it had been calculated based on the records against teams that were in a playoff position, or the top three teams in each division. This makes losses to non-playoff teams as detrimental as losses to playoff teams. To see how this may affect the upcoming season, let's compare how the new format would have affected last season's women's basketball postseason. TORONTO — The OUA released the 2016-17 OUA women's basketball schedule Monday afternoon.
The defending OUA-champion Ryerson Rams will kick off their #KeepTheCritelli, title defence campaign on Saturday, November 5th against the Laurier Golden Hawks in a 1:00PM matinee in Waterloo.
It has been more than half a century since Wales last beat New Zealand in a rugby match. To be exact, it was December 19th, 1953 when the Dragons defeated the All Blacks, winning 13-8 in Cardiff. Since then, 22,821 days later, they have lost 26 consecutive matches. Saturday, the All Blacks pushed that winning streak to 27 with a 39-21 win over the Dragons.
The defending-OUA Champion, Ryerson Rams have added veteran experience to their back court by signing former Ottawa Gee-Gee standout, Kellie Ring (Ottawa, ON).
Ring who spent the last four years with the Ottawa Gee-Gees, will be a welcome addition to the 2016-17 Rams roster, who will be without the services of their three departing fifth-year seniors: Siki Jez (Kitchener, ON), Mariah Nunes (Ajax, ON), and the CIS Player of the Year, Keneca Pingue-Giles (Winnipeg, MB). |
