LU claws up to sixth in CIS Top 10

Lakehead took two wins from the McMaster Marauders last weekend and on Tuesday the CIS announced that the Thunderwolves also took what was once Mac’s No. 6 spot in the CIS men’s basketball top ten rankings.

The Wolves’ four-spot jump from their previous No. 10 ranking was the biggest of the week and makes them the top ranked team out of the OUA West Division, one spot up on No. 7 Windsor.
