The University of Regina's men's basketball team will finish the 2013-14 season this weekend at home with games on Friday and Saturday against Brandon at the Centre for Kinesiology, Health & Sport.

Game time is set for 8:15 on Friday night and 7:00 on Saturday night.

This weekend's games mark the first time that the two ancient Great Plains Athletic Conference rivals have played in Regina since October of 2010, as the Cougars and Bobcats played twice in Brandon during both the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons.

The Cougars (4-16) are coming off a weekend split with Calgary, losing by a 77-66 margin on Friday but winning 92-81 on Saturday in a game that saw Brendan Hebert surpass Zach Michell as the University of Regina's all-time leader in career assists.

Addison Docherty – the lone fifth-year player on the Cougar roster – will be honoured on Saturday as part of Senior Night. Docherty, who played for two seasons with Medicine Hat College before transferring, is in his fourth year at the U of R and his third with the Cougars after spending last season recovering from an injury.

The Cougars are led offensively by first-year guard Brandon Tull, who leads the team and ranks second among Canada West's rookies with an average of 14.4 points per game this season. Travis Sylvestre has also picked it up offensively since the December break, as the second-year swingman has at least nine points in each of the U of R's past 10 games – including a career-high 24 points in last Saturday's win over Calgary.

Hebert, Tull, Darius Mole, Will Tallman, and Wesley Jones made up the starting five last weekend against Calgary with Sylvestre, Jeremy Zver, Kade Marra, Matthew Augustine, and Docherty getting time off the bench for the Cougars. Marra also had a solid weekend, scoring 19 points and pulling down a team-high 14 rebounds over the two games against the Dinos.

Brandon (5-15) comes into the weekend on a seven-game slide with its last victory coming in a home win over Manitoba on Jan. 17. The Bobcats have a balanced offence with five players averaging double figures in scoring, led by Emerick Ravier's 13.3 points per game. Kenonte Ramsey (12.6 ppg), Jordan Reaves (11.2), Ali-Mounir Benabdelhak (10.8), and Ilarion Bonhomme (10.4) also heavily contribute to Brandon's offence, while Reaves – a 6-4 fifth-year forward – leads the team with an average of 6.2 rebounds per game.

Though both teams have been mathematically eliminated from the postseason, Regina and Brandon could both finish anywhere from fifth to eighth in the Prairie Division standings depending on the results of the final weekend of the conference schedule.
