"Legalites" was the name of the sports teams of Osgoode Hall, a law school located in Toronto, Ontario. It became part of York University in 1965 and is no longer a separate member of any athletic conference. Its students can (and do) play for the York Lions.
History[]
Osgoode Hall was one of the founding members of the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) in 1890. They entered teams in all three levels of the OHA (Senior, Intermediate, and Junior) as well as in the Ontario-Quebec Intermediate Intercollegiate series and Ontario Intercollegiate Athletic Association (OIAA). The OIAA operated within the Canadian Intercollegiate Athletic Union (CIAU), which became known as Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) and then U Sports. The school now plays intramural hockey within York University.
Of note, Osgoode Hall beat Queen's University in the final for the Cosby Cup and OHA title in 1894 and 1898. They also defeated the University of Toronto 17-16 in a two game total points series en route to the 1898 final. In 1924 they defeated the Royal Military College in the final of the Ontario-Quebec Intermediate Intercollegiate series.
