In the semis, Acadia defeated St. FX 69-67.

In the other semi, the UPEI Panthers edged the Mount Allison Mounties 79-75 as Delroy Adams and Aion Pettigrew got hot in the second half.

        In the final, Acadia upset UPEI 77-71. UPEI had been ranked number one in the nation for most of the year. The Panthers opened the affair by trying a box-and-one defence alternately on Gary Towle and Chris Sumner but it opened up the floor for other Axemen, particularly Peter Norris and Rodney Martin. The Axemen led 22-13 after one quarter and 40-33 at the half. The Panthers shifted to man-to-man defence in the second half and rallied within five but Acadia iced it at the line. Tournament MVP Rodney Martin paced the Axemen with 28. Trevor Willock led the Panthers with 19.

        On July 27-85 Allan Waye is named to replace Gary Heald at the helm of the Saint Mary’s Huskies.
