Argos defence comes up big!

After having trouble scoring once they reached the red-zone, as a result of turnovers, the Boatmen rally in the 4th quarter and beat the Lions 24-20 at the Rogers Centre last night. With the score 20-10 for BC, Argonaut QB Cleo Lemon hits Brandon Rideau for a 20 yard TD at 8:57, closing the gap at 20-17. A few minutes later, Byron Parker snares a Travis Lulay pass and returns it 41 yards for the TD at 12:34 giving Toronto the go ahead 24-20. The Lions did get the ball back, and started a drive, however another interception by Willie Pile put a stop to that, and Toronto hung on for the win. Jeremaine Copeland caught a 21 yard pass in the end zone to score Toronto’s other touchdown at 14:02 of the 2nd, on a 3 play 69 yard drive. Grant Shaw contributed a field goal and three converts. The Argonaut offence was not overly impressive in this game, giving up the ball 4 times, and not scoring when they had opportunities. But yet again the defence steps up and makes plays when it count...
