The Saskatoon Hilltops are the 2025 Canadian Bowl champions after a thrilling victory over the Okanagan Sun on November 9th. 

One of the heroes of the national championship game was kicker Ryden Gratton who nailed a 37-yard field goal with 29 seconds remaining on the clock in the fourth quarter for the winning score.  It was his only field goal attempt of the game, and he made it count.

He catches up with Ryan Watters and shares what he was thinking with time winding down and an opportunity to help his team capture their 24th Canadian Bowl title.
