MBB: Canada trip provides chance for early bonding

While we rapidly approach the start of football season, Oregon Men’s Basketball took a little trip to the Great White (well, perhaps not this time of year) North for some summer hoops.

During the swing, the Ducks squared off against McGill University, University of Ottawa, Carleton University, McMaster University, and Toronto Metropolitan University. The first game took place in Montreal, the following two in Ottawa, and the final two in Toronto.

Not only was it a great bonding experience for the newly-assembled squad, but it provided a homecoming for Ethan Butler, Keeshawn Barthelemy, and Quincy Guerrier.

While the first game ended in complete domination for Oregon thanks to big performances from twin towers Nate Bittle and Kel’el Ware, Guerrier came to the rescue as Oregon survived the second contest 78-76.
