Jan. 23, 2015, 12 a.m. (ET) McMaster University is a growing public research-driven institution that's booming with nearly 30,000 students. It's one of the biggest attractions and economic drivers in Hamilton, the port city in the Canadian Province of Ontario.
In early January when snow seldom disappears from Canada's landscape and wind chill factors are ridiculous, folks are warming up to the awesome performances of the McMaster University table tennis team.
The McMaster bunch is led by four incredible freshmen who are standout members of Canada's National Team. Players like Klement Yeung, Dun Li, Max Xia and Michelle Liaw are stepping things up and transforming the McMaster University Marauders into a table tennis powerhouse in collegiate circles.
At the NCTTA's most recent divisional tournament, McMaster knocked off Canada's traditional powers like the University of Toronto and the University of Western Ontario.
"McMaster held a near perfect record at the (fall) tournament," says NCTTA Great Lakes Division Director Keith Lam. Western Ontario exchange student Ken Chong of Hong Kong was the only one to win a match against any McMaster player. He managed to defeat Klement Yeung in some awfully close games. When all was said and done, Ken won it three games to one.
Look for more good things to come for McMaster players in the new year with the championships just three months away.
"McMaster will be a force at the Great Lakes Regional Tournament and the 2015 TMS College Table Tennis Championships" in Wisconsin in April, Keith Lam says.
McMaster is part of Canada's Greater Toronto Division. The school's alumni include funny movie stars like Martin Short and John Candy, but nobody is laughing at their superb table tennis team.
In the Canada East Division, things are looking up, too. That's in large part due to the behind the scenes work of NCTTA alumni like Pierre Luc Hinse and Yang Jiang. The two former collegiate table tennis stars teamed up as co-directors of the division in the Montreal/Ottawa area. Three schools took part in the Fall tournament: McGill University, the University of Ottawa and ETS (Ecole de Technologie Superieure).
