Calgary Dino receiver Anthony Parker and Queens Gaels offensive lineman Matt O’Donnell will be representing the CIS in the 86th East-West Shrine Game. The game will be played Jan. 22, 2011 at the Florida Citrus Bowl in Orlando with former NFL head coaches Dan Reeves and Wade Phillips on the respective sidelines.
O’Donnell and Parker faced off in the 2009 Vanier Cup in Quebec City. This game will prove to be warmer, and will be more about individual performance then team accolades.
