SARNIA, Ontario — Christmas is under a week away, which means the New Year and the second half of the 2019-20 season is just around the corner.
That said, there is still some time to reflect on the fall semester and the level of excitement that it provided across the country. From coast to coast, fans were treated to some high-caliber basketball in every conference as teams looked to put themselves in prime position for a run at the 2020 CCAA Men’s Basketball Championship.
With the first half of the season in the books, it’s time to acknowledge players who stood out above the rest on their respective teams. So, we combed through each and every team roster from across the CCAA landscape to make up our First Semester All-Star Teams for each conference.
Each program has at least one player on their respective conference all-star team. With the OCAA divisions having 11 teams apiece on the men’s side, we went with 11-player rosters across the board to make things even. If leagues or divisions have less than 11 teams, we went with one player from each team before filling out the rosters with the best of the rest.
Without further adieu, here are the CCR Canada Men’s All-Stars for the fall semester across the CCAA.
