Laurier vs. McMaster basketball games postponed

The so-called ‘Snowmageddon 2011’ did more than just close Wilfrid Laurier University on Wednesday. The storm also prevented the McMaster Marauders basketball teams from making it to Waterloo for their scheduled match-ups with the Golden Hawks.

Initially scheduled for 8:00 pm Wednesday night, the men’s game will now be played at 7:00 pm on Thursday at the WLU Athletic Complex. The women’s game, however, has yet to be re-scheduled.

The 11-5 Golden Hawks sit six points up on the 8-8 Marauders in the men’s standings while on the women’s side, the Hawks (who are 11-5 just like their male counterparts) rank 12 points ahead of the 5-10 Mac squad.
