Sturgeon Strong in Season Finale

The Sturgeon Peewees wrapped up their season with an impressive 38-6 victory over the Rattlers on Sunday in Mississauga.  The victory was a total team effort as the Sturgeon scored in all facets of the game.  Jamie Campbell lead the attack with 3 majors on the day, scoring from 70, 5, and 3 yards out.  Keyshawn Jordan added a 59 yard scamper of his own and a two-point conversion pass to Dylan Fais.  The defence and special teams also got into the act as Aden Alkinani blocked a punt deep in the Rattler zone that was recovered in the end zone by Chase McCrae. Aaron Blondin also picked up a forced fumble and ran it 20 yrs for a score.

The Rattlers came out tough to start the game holding the Sturgeon to only 6 points in the first half.  Mississauga struck first on a nice pass play over the middle for a 40 yard touchdown.  After shutting down the 2 pt conversion attempt the Sarnia offence answered with a major of their own, Jamie Campbell’s first of the day.  With the score knotted at 6 to start the 2^nd half the Sturgeon took over with 32 unanswered points.  The defence was dominant as they refused to allow the Rattlers to cross mid-field in the second half. Defensive stalwarts Mitch Damchuck, Aden Alkinani, Josh Kita, and Chase McCrae lead the team in tackles.

In the final week of the season the Sturgeon prepare to face the Toronto Jr. Argos on Championship day in London July 31^st in the Silver Medal Game, kick-off scheduled for 12:30 PM at Westminster Secondary School. 

Congratulations to the Pee Wees on a successful season.
