Hawks soar to eighth CCAA Men's Basketball Championship

CHAMPIONSHIP FINAL 

The Durham Lords vied for gold against the Humber Hawks in the final game of the CCAA Championship. Humber’s #14 Adrian Aluyi scored the first points for his team less than a minute after the quarter began. Adopting an aggressive offensive approach, the Lords took the lead back halfway through the first quarter that ended with the Lords leading 20-16. Durham managed to stay ahead during the second quarter thanks to their strong defensive and offensive control of the court. The score at the end of the quarter was 35-27 for the Durham Lords.

In the third quarter the teams were evenly matched but despite the Hawks adopting a stronger offensive in the third quarter, they couldn’t close the point gap, due in part to Durham’s #12 Jasean Elliott and #4 Miles Hall scoring 3 pointers one after the other. The crowd got progressively more enthusiastic as the game advanced into the final quarter with 55-46 for the Lords. The last quarter was marked by a surprising turn of events when the Hawks managed to take the lead over Durham thanks to four 3 pointers in the last half of the quarter. The Humber Hawks won the 2025 CCAA Basketball, 76-70. The player of the game for the Durham Lords was #10 Rashane Smith and #14 Adrian Aluyi for the Humber Hawks. 

Congratulations to the Humber Hawks on winning the 2025 CCAA Gold Medal and the Durham Lords on winning the Silver Medal!
