Carleton University, which is located in Ottawa, Ontario, will be the Razorbacks second opponent of the week.

The Ravens are defending Canadian national collegiate champions, finishing the season at 27-9 overall and 17-5 in league play to win the Ontario University Athletics (OUA) conference last season.

That led to the Carleton earning a berth to the 2026 U Sports Men’s Final 8 Basketball Tournament as the No. 6 seed Ravens defeated Laval Rouge et Or 85-69 in the first round, TMU Bold 58-52 in the semifinal and Bishop’s Gaiters 78-75 in the final to win the program’s 18th Canadian Men’s Basketball National Championship.
