History
The program was started in 1988 by Akos Tozer, Heath Chantler, Stu Baille and current Rugby Canada CEO Graham Brown. In the program's early years, the team played exhibition games against OUA sides as well as against nearby American Collegiate teams. In 1991, the Lancers were admitted into the Michigan Collegiate League, where they played against teams like Michigan State University, Bowling Green State University, the University of Michigan, and Western Michigan University. In 2000 the team was awarded full varsity status by the University of Windsor and gained entry into the Ontario University Athletics conference. The team lost its varsity status at the end of the 2008 season. In 2009 it restarted as a club team and won the 2010 Detroit Ruck City Tournament.
