For the first time in program history the Ontario Tech Ridgebacks have picked up three wins after a 79-70 win over Laurentian on the road.
Â
The shorthanded Voyageurs came out hot on a 13-5 run, but the Ridgebacks quickly responded after a timeout and began chipping away at the Laurentian lead. Ontario Tech took the lead into half time, and a pivotal third quarter offensively saw their lead continue to grow before they were able to seal the game away in the fourth with lock down defence.Â

Â
Levi Ogbonna (Toronto, Ont.) led all scorers for the Ridgebacks with 23 points, seven rebounds, six assists and three blocks.
Jayden Coke (Ajax, Ont.) returned to the line-up with 19 points and eight rebounds.
