Strong debut forĀ Campus Notre-Dame-de-FoyĀ QB, David Pelletier
The season is off and what a start for the CollĆØge AndrĆ©-Grasset PhĆ©nix who stomped the CĆ©gep de Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu GĆ©ants 55-21. The PhĆ©nix piled up the points with a balanced offence and stopped a very talented GĆ©ants offence with a physical defence lead by Defensive Back Bruno LagacĆ©.
Two games were played in Quebec City.
The Champlain College Cougars kicked a 50 yard field goal to win the game 23-20, in the last minute of regular play, against a more mature CĆ©gep Garneau team. The Cougars offensive backfield, including QB Guillaume Renaud-Dumoulin,Ā accounted for over 450 yards total yards. The Garneau Ćlans led for most of the game and displayed their potential to be a contender for the top four spots including 402 yards passing from QB JoĆ© Hudon.
On the other side of the city, The Campus de Notre-Dame-de-Foy pounded their way to victory withĀ an offenceĀ proving to be too much for the CĆ©gep Limoilou Titans defence. Le Notre-Dame’sĀ QB Pelletier racked up 430 yards and three touchdown passes which two of them went to receiver Vincent Forbes-Mombleau. Forbes-Mombleau also had a great day with 210 yards to help his team win, withĀ a final score of 37-19.
The Vanier College Cheetahs opened the 2016 season with an exciting win over the Cegep LĆ©vis-Lauzon Faucons game on Saturday night. The Cheetahs third year QB, Dimitri Sinodinos, came out blazing like if he hadn’t missed a snap since his season endingĀ injury early last season with a showing of 9 passes, 2 of those were for touchdowns, forĀ 245 yards. The Vanier running game was led by RB Patrick Charles who ran 19 times for 190 yards, including a 70 yard burst. The Fauconsā young QB was overwhelmed by the Vanier defence who picked him off twice.
The last game of the weekend was held on the CollĆØge Montmorency field, where the CĆ©gep Vieux-MontrĆ©al Spartiates traveled to face a young CollĆØge Montmorency Nomades team. A defensive face-off made life tough for both offences and their young QBās. The Spartiates took advantage of some opportunities to come out on top 21-16.
