CFC#9 CENTRAL CATHOLIC CRUSADERS (WOSSAA) 40, CFC#42 ST. PETER’S KNIGHTS (NCSSAA) 7:

Sebastian Vanin scored two touchdowns including a 43 yard interception return to power CFC#9 and Western Ontario Secondary School Athletic Association (WOSSAA) representative Central Catholic Crusaders to a 40-7 victory over CFC#42 and National Capital Secondary School Athletic Association (NCSSAA) representative St. Peter’s Knights to claim the Western Bowl.

After a scoreless first quarter, Neil Garrity got the Crusaders on the scoreboard in the second quarter with a 10 yard field goal.  Soon after, Derek Aubin sprinted into the end zone for a 43 yard major and Luke Petropoulakis connected with Pearson Brown for a 51 yard touchdown reception.

By halftime, the Crusaders enjoyed 19-0 lead over the Knights.

With no scoring in the third quarter, Vanin scored the next two Crusaders touchdowns in the final frame.  His first one came 11 seconds out of the fourth quarter as Petropoulakis found him for an 11 yard score.  Over four minutes later, Vanin caught an interception and dashed down field for a 43 yard major.

The Knights finally got on the scoreboard as Josh Earle returned a kickoff for a 115 yard touchdown.  Fernando De La Rosa rounded out the scoring with a six yard major for the Crusaders.

This is the third OFSAA Bowl victory for the Crusaders, who have previously won in both 2004 and 2005.

CFC#22 RESURRECTION PHOENIX 31 (SWOSSAA), CFC#43 ETOBICOKE RAMS (TDSSAA) 8:

Devon Hinsperger scored two touchdowns and rushed for 110 yards on eight carries as CFC#22 and Southwestern Ontario Secondary School Athletic Association representative Resurrection Phoenix dismantled CFC#43 and Toronto District Secondary School Athletic Association (TDSSAA) representative Etobicoke Rams 31-8 in the Metro Bowl.

After a scoreless first half, Tyler Malloch sprinted into the end zone for an 18 yard touchdown to put the Phoenix up 7-0 in the third quarter.  Hinsperger strengthened the lead with an eight yard major.

The Rams got their lone points of the game within the first minute of the fourth quarter when Max Melville connected with Keegan Dicks for a 15 yard touchdown.  Moreover, the Rams were successful on a two point conversion attempt to lessen the deficit 14-8.

However, the Phoenix would score 17 answered points to finish the game.  After a Robel Berhane 28 yard field goal, Hinsperger tallied his second major of the game as he snuck into the end zone for a two yard touchdown.  Then, Scott Lane added a 50 yard major for the Phoenix.

Justin Jelacic led the Phoenix defence with six tackles while Max Lysovyk had seven for the Rams.
