The highlight of the trip is playing Carleton University. They are probably the best Canadian college team in Canada and last year played 18 exhibition games and won 17 of them including games against providence, Vanderbilt, & Alabama.
Also they will face off against Former Xavier enrollee Eddie Ekiyor, who left do to personal reasons before ever suiting up for them. But I believe he did practice with them for a half season.
BUT the biggest news of this trip is that UC gets 10 additional full practices they can use to prep for the up coming trip. 10 extra practices for a team who needs to find its identity could really pay dividends later on in the season coupled with the fact that UC is going to face real competition in Canada.

Great opportunity to get a head start on the season. With three starters gone from last year the added practice and games will be a big help.
