Another accused, Carter Hart, testified over two days last week, which included one day of cross-examination by the Crown.
Formenton, Hart and their ex-teammates Michael McLeod, Dillon Dube and Callan Foote have pleaded not guilty to sexual assault.
McLeod has also pleaded not guilty to an additional charge of being a party to the offence of sexual assault.
The trial centres on an encounter with a woman inside a London, Ont., hotel room in the early hours of June 19, 2018.
