A repeat

The Sault Ste. Marie Steelers have repeated as Northern Football Conference Champions. The Steelers downed the Tri City Outlaws 35-4 to earn their 3 title in the last 4 years and sixth over all. Steelers held a 9-4 edge at the half but scored 26 unanswered points to seal the win. Game MVPs were League scoring and rushing leader Josh Gauthier who amassed 206 yards on 17 carries with 4 touchdowns. Linebacker Adam Ross earned the honour on the defensive side of the ball with 9.5 tackles, 2 hurries and 2 tackles for losses. For Gauthier, this is his third Championship MVP and Ross' first.

Records update

Several records have been rewritten this year due to the stellar seasons of Josh Gauthier and Jon Nedeljkovic. They became the third pair of running backs (Dave D'Aloisio and Neri Fratin of Sudbury in 1982 as well as John Miller of Sudbury and Leon Peart of Brampton Bears in 1991) to have more than 1,000 yards rushing in the same season. Gauthier eclipsed three season records and a career mark while Nedeljkovic set new career standards in five categories. The updated files are attached.
