The top-seeded UBC Thunderbirds won their third consecutive national championship and completed an undefeated season following their victory over the Manitoba Bisons.[1][2] The Thunderbirds finished the season with a 27–0 record against CIS opponents and became the fifth team to win three straight gold medals.[1] This was the first time that UBC and Manitoba had faced each other in the gold medal match, with both programs entering the game having won six national championships.[1] With the victory, the Thunderbirds tied a CIS record with their seventh championship win in program history, which had also been accomplished by the Winnipeg Wesmen and Alberta Pandas.[1]
