Lancers forced to forfeit

Heartbreak for the women's hockey team. Their playoff game against Western Wednesday night has been cancelled due to Covid-19 protocols. The Lancers were forced to forfeit the game allowing the Mustangs to advance to the next round.

Things were going well for the Lancers women's hockey team. They had won four out of the last five games including two straight against Western. The team qualified for the playoffs for the first time in five years and were looking forward to hosting the Mustangs, "I'm thrilled to have the program back in playoffs and am excited to start things off at home playing in front of our fans", said assistant captain Amy Maitre earlier this week.

The lancers avoided last place in the OUA for the first time since 2018 and finished 4th in the West division with a 4-6-3-3 record.
