With a 1-4 record, hitting the panic button is becoming increasingly tempting for McMaster’s men’s basketball team. The Marauders are in the midst of a four-game losing streak, with some of those losses coming in very winnable games. But the head coach of the Maroon program is not worried – yet. “It’s all part of […]
When the McMaster Association of Part-time Students was denied a 42.9 per cent fee increase last spring, it must have raised some red flags with the University. It was the second substantive increase that MAPS had requested in three years. In reporting to the University’s Board of Governors, the Budget Committee expressed its discomfort with […]
When they arrived at McMaster more than a year ago, Layla Mashkoor and Nicole Rallis didn't know much about Hamilton. Since then, they’ve found their place in the city and have documented its shifting urban identity in a film called This is Hamilton...After the Steel Rush. On Saturday, Nov. 24, a mix of community members […]
A heavily McMaster-favoring crowd of 37,098 spotted the Rogers Centre with Maroon for the 48th Vanier Cup against the Laval Rouge et Or Friday night. In a rematch of last year's game, which the Marauders won 41-38, the Rouge et Or came out firing on all cylinders. Without question, the nation's second-ranked team had not […]

The rollercoaster season continues after a weekend of losses for the men’s basketball team. Following a 82-64 dismantling from the Ottawa Gee-Gees, the players and coaches walked out from the locker room looking lost. “After Ottawa … that was the lowest spot of the season,” said head coach Amos Connolly. “We felt like we didn’t […]
The Hamilton Tiger-Cats announced on Tuesday that they’d be playing their 2013 home games in Alumni Stadium at the University of Guelph. No matter how much pride we might feel about the McMaster Marauders’ dominant season, we’ll have to mix it with a little shame. Our school could have, and should have, found a way […]
OUA East opponents have not been kind to the McMaster Marauders, with the Ottawa Gee-Gees handing the Marauders their second loss of the season, 82-64. Friday night’s match at Montpetit Hall saw the home debut of an experienced Gee-Gee team, led by fifth-year guard Warren Ward. An energetic crowd gave Ottawa a hop in their […]
McMaster ended up on the wrong end of a back-and-forth game against the Ottawa Gee-Gees, losing 82-55. In the first road game of the season, the Marauders women’s basketball team were up against last year’s OUA Champions. Ottawa is fielding a much different team this year with a number of key players graduating, including CIS […]
By: John Bauer After another perfect weekend, the only thing that has slowed the men's volleyball team's ascent farther ahead of the pack in the OUA standings is their bye week.
