SHAYNE STINSON RETURNED THE OPENING KICK-OFF 37 YARDS TO GIVE THE CHEETAHS EXCELLENT FIELD POSITION THAT LED TO VINCENT CLEROUXāS FIRST QUARTER TOUCHDOWN AND SET THE TONE AS THE CHEETAHS EDGED THE SPARTIATES 14-9. WITH THE WIN, VANIER SWEEPS THE SEASON SERIES 2-0 AGAINST THEIR LONG-TIME RIVALS.
Vincent ClĆ©roux (seen at right) hauled in quarterback JĆ©rĆ©mi Rochās 10-yard pass to cross the goal-line for a major and complete the Cheetahs 9 play, 51 yard drive to commence the first quarter. Josh MacDuffie booted his first of two converts on the day as the Cheetahs went ahead 7-0 only 4:35 into the contest, a lead that they would not relinquish. The Spartiates recorded a pair of singles before Roch marched his team 85 yards down the field in 9 plays, capping the drive off with a 22-yard touchdown pass to sure-handed receiver Matthew Norzil, as the Cheetahs built a 14-2 advantage.
