Elijah Bell-Haynes to don CAPER Orange this fall on the court
June 8, 2026
The CAPERS men's basketball program is pleased to welcome Elijah Bell-Haynes to the roster for the 2026-2027 season. Hailing from Toronto, Ontario, this 6'2" point guard will be pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree while playing for Cape Breton University.
Elijah played a "fast and athletic style" at his previous school, Hodan Prep, and feels that he can carry his skills forward to create lots of offensive and defensive options for the CAPERS.
Elijah shared with us that he chose the CBU men's basketball program for the next step in his basketball journey due to the coach and the development opportunity. He was also attracted to the "good team culture".
"Elijah is an amazing person and player, shared Head Coach Matt Skinn. "He is hard working, has a great attitude, and will impact our team with his tenacity and competitiveness. We are so excited to see him grow in our program as a leader and dynamic player!"
"I can't wait to get started," said an excited Elijah. 
We are so happy you chose CBU! Welcome to the CAPER family! See you in the fall.
