MONTREAL – A jumper by Nicolas Langley with 1:57 to go proved to be decisive as the McGill Redmen edged the Bishop's Gaiters, 70-67, in Quebec university men's basketball league play at the Love Competition Hall in Montreal, Thursday. Langley's bucket, two of his team-high 18 points, put McGill up 68-67, the ninth and final lead change of a frenetic, back-and-forth, final quarter. The Gaiters had the ball for the game's final 20 seconds, but a potential game-tying three-pointer rimmed out, allowing the Redmen to come away with the victory.
