1632...Capital Hoops Classic

The big game for basketball fans, the biggest non hockey sports event in Ottawa, takes place tonight at Scotia Bank Place.

It is the MBNA Capital Hoops Classic pitting the defending national champions and number two ranked Carleton Ravens versus the University of Ottawa Gee Gees, ranked fifth in Canada in the featured game. The opening match is between the women's teams at both schools, teams that are not in the top ten nationally but both are strong contenders to go to the nationals in Hamilton.

Now if you want to go to the game you are in luck; although the crowd will be around 9,000, the room is big so there will be a lot of tix avail. Plus, bonus, the game is on TV if you have Rogers Cable in Ottawa. Channel 22, tape delayed.

Game time is six for the women; eight for the men.

Look for me, right up front, in my black and red Carleton Ravens sombrero.
