Top 30 CCAA Rankings by Bill Crowdis – December 2, 2015
With the first semester of the CCAA coming to a close, week #6 of our rankings is starting to show teams settling comfortably into their respective league standings.
1-10 – Lambton drops out of the top ten for the first time this season, as they fell to Niagara on a half-court shot that sent their game into overtime, then a three pointer at the buzzer to seal the deal. NAIT is back into the top 10 with two wins over Concordia this past weekend. La Cite continues their historical season and replaces Lambton at the #9 spot.
11-20 – Medicine Hat took down Lethbridge handily over the weekend, while Olds jumps back into the top 20 showing that the ACAC has great depth and parity. The biggest jump comes from Niagara who, as mentioned, pulled off the upset over Lambton. Humber, John Abbott and Capilano all posted DNP’s with all jumping up one spot in the rankings.
21-30 – Dropping into the bottom third of our rankings we see Lethbridge sliding along with Vanier and St. Lawrence. Teams on the rise include Algonquin, Montmorency and George Brown. Seneca cracks the top 30 for the first time this season and we see the return of Ambrose who split games with Briercrest, but boast victories over top 20 teams, Medicine Hat and Olds in league play.
Player of the Week – Wayne Tucker Jr.
Player of the Week goes to Wayne Tucker of Olds College, who dropped back to back 40 point games (40 & 44) in wins over St. Mary’s.
