The 2019 U Sports Men's Final 8 Basketball Tournament was held March 7–10, 2019 in Halifax, Nova Scotia.[1] It was hosted by Dalhousie University, which has hosted the championship five other times, most recently in 2017.[2] Sports & Entertainment Atlantic (S|E|A) was a production partner for the event, its third year coordinating the championship game.[3] The tournament was held at the Scotiabank Centre for the third consecutive year and it was the 32nd time that the tournament was played in Halifax.[4] The Carleton University Ravens won the tournament, beating defending national champions, the University of Calgary Dinos, 83-49. The win extended Carleton's record number of men's basketball titles to 14.
