The University of Toronto Varsity Blues men's basketball team fell to the No. 3 Queen's Gaels 96-91 at the Goldring Centre Kimel Family Field House on Saturday (Jan. 20) night.

By the end of the game, Toronto would lead in both free-throws and rebounds, but would ultimately fall to the Gaels with a final score of 96-91.

Toronto was led by second-year guard Noah Ngamba who scored a game-high 24 points, shooting 100% from the free-throw line. Fourth-year forward Anthony Daudu was once again dominant under the basket with a game-high 11 rebounds and adding 10 points. Third-year forward Lennert Weber also helped the Blues in their dominance on the boards recording eight rebounds in his 30 minutes of play.
