The Lakehead Open team played 2 hard matches against Carleton and Memorial. Both teams played with composure and skills, unfortunately Lakehead did not come out with the two wins. After two hard games, the men faced a talented McGill team. The score was close, as captain Caleb Frisby helped work the disc across the field with Ling “Jason” Jiangzhao helping him handle. At the end it was Stewart Macpherson who caught the game winning catch on universe point. Great defense by Aaron Brecka and Eric Bongelli allowed the turnover which ultimately got the opportunity for a point. Games continue into Sunday as Lakehead’s Open team will be playing at 8am.
