The Lawrence Academy Warriors will be taking part in a tournament against the Halifax Academy Vikings at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup.

Everything came up roses for Lawrence Academy against Halifax Academy in their previous meeting back in January, as the squad secured a 72-41 win.
