Coach's Corner
Coach
Paul Ballard talked about the match-ups with McGill and Montreal this weekend:
On McGill
"It is always an enjoyable challenge to play McGill. We are well aware of the history of their school and the rivalry between us, which extends beyond sport. I have a great deal of respect for their program and their coach and as a team we look forward to a really good match."
On Montreal
"Montreal is gearing up for the playoffs and a chance to repeat as national champions. Our rally cry for the game is to play for our seniors, as it is their final game as a Gaiter, and to leave everything on the field."
