With the victory, the #9 Lancers move to 3-0 in OUA regular season play.

On Friday, Windsor came out on fire as they exploded at the offensive end and applied tremendous pressure on Toronto's defense. 

Playing without Isaac Kuon who was out with an injury, the Lancers showed great balance and a fierce offensive attack that seemed to overwhelm the Varsity Blues.

Josh Collins and Enrico Diloreto were outstanding as they scored from long range and by attacking the basket to give their team a 28-11 lead after one quarter.

The Varsity Blues mounted a small charge in the second quarter but still trailed 40-27 at the break.

The second half was more of the same as Windsor continued to put their offensive game on display. Collins, Diloreto and Hardware hit from long range and Lien Phillip was dominant in the post as Windsor built a 20-point second half lead.

Windsor was able to play a number of their younger players in the second half as they cruised to the 81-69 victory.

For the Lancers, Diloreto had a game-high 23 points on 8 of 14 shooting. Collins was equally as good as he finished with 14 points, 8 steals, 7 rebounds and 7 assists in a very impressive performance.
