With the OVFL season just days away, Thomas Riolo, the scheduled starting quarterback for the 2013 Cowboys has decided to leave the team. Thomas was a key addition this off-season and was expected to play a major in improving the Cowboys offense this season .
To fill the starting quarterback spot, the Cowboys have gone out and signed John Perovic, a two-time ROPSSAA champion with St.Marcellinus Spirit. The Mississauga native has also recently committed to the York Lions for the 2013 CIS season.
The Cowboys head into the 2013 season with a strong offensive line and a talented receiving core, which bodes well for the young pivot, who looks to provide the offensive fire-power that the Cowboys have been lacking the last few years.
Although, the change came only a few days before their first game, coach Jon Kronemeyer showed great optimism when welcoming his new quarterback.
The Cowboys begin their season this Saturday at home against the OVFL defending champions, London Mustangs. Catch the game at Bishop Redding High school, game time is at 7pm.
