Sarnia, ON – The St. Clair College Men's Basketball team moved their West Division leading record to 3-0 early with a 91-68 win over Lambton College in Sarnia Wednesday night.  The Saints are the top-rated team in the OCAA and started at #2 in the initial Canadian rankings that were released on Tuesday.   

St. Clair started well Wednesday night building a 29-17 cushion over Lambton heading to the second quarter and increased their lead to 57-39 by the intermission.  The Saints went ahead by their biggest margin at 25 points with just under four minutes to go in the third and were able to share the minutes down the stretch.
