The varsity team nabbed the third and final playoff spot after taking two points on Saturday, after the Hamilton-Wentworth Panthers forfeited the final regular season match, due to injuries and low numbers.

The Gladiators finished the 2010 campaign with a 4-2-2 record.

In its first season in the Ontario Football Conference, Sudbury’s junior squad was unable to tally any points, marking a 0-8 record overall.

In the team’s final game against the Hamilton-Wentworth Panthers, held at Queen’s Athletic Field July 24, the junior Gladiators were on the losing end of a 41-7 score.

The juniors marked only 23 points throughout the season, while their points against tally soared to 350 – more than 200 points above the fifth place team.
