Offensive Players of the Week

Prairie Conference
QB Bryson McNeil – Winnipeg Rifles

The Rifles QB1 saved his best game for the playoffs finding success through the air against the CJFL’s top team.  McNeil completed 22 passes for 384 yards and three touchdowns.  He run for another major on 11 carries gaining 62 yards.

BC Conference
QB Dominic Britton – Okanagan Sun

He picked apart the VI Raiders in Saturday’s semi-final victory finishing 16 of 20 for 316 yards and threw a pair of touchdowns.  He also rushed into the end zone on three carries for 16 yards.

Ontario Conference
WR Cody Holmes - St. Clair Fratmen

In very limited action in the Fratmen’s home win over the Hamilton Hurricanes, All-Star receiver Cody Holmes beat the defensive backs early and often for long gains.  He hauled in four catches for 105 yards and two touchdowns including a 50-yarder.

Defensive Players of the Week

Prairie Conference
LB Brant Morrow – Saskatoon Hilltops

In a back and forth game, Brant Morrow was one of the heroes on defence intercepting two passes in the fourth quarter of the semi-final, with one of the picks setting up the go-ahead field goal.

BC Conference
DL Tyler Eckert – Langley Rams

In a Rams dominating semi-final victory Eckert led a very stingy defence which made it difficult for the visiting Valley Huskers to move the ball.  He tallied three sacks and three solo tackles.

Ontario Conference
DB Jeremy Hicks - Hamilton Hurricanes

Despite the loss, Jeremy Hicks did his very best to keep the Hurricanes in the game against the undefeated Fratmen.  Hicks had three tackles, forced one fumble, and intercepted a pass returning it 51 yards for a touchdown.

Special Teams Players of the Week

Prairie Conference
R Ben Wilton – Edmonton Huskies

He was outstanding giving the visiting Huskies excellent field position in their semi-final loss in Saskatoon.  He returned six kicks for 189 yards, highlighted by a 90-yard return for a touchdown.

BC Conference
K/P Isaac Wegner – Okanagan Sun

He had a busy night during the semi-final which included four kick-offs traveling 175 yards and then seven punts flipping the field and gaining 273 yards.  He also scored two points for the Sun on singles.

Ontario Conference
R Dante Lewis - St. Clair Fratmen

In helping the Fratmen complete an undefeated regular season, Lewis was absolutely electric in the return game giving his club great field position all night. He returned four punts for 76 yards as well as ran back seven kickoffs for 145 yards.
