It was an opportunity for the roster depth on Thursday night at Mosaic Stadium as the Manitoba Bisons defeated the Regina Rams, 26-7, in Canada West Pre-Season action.
The crowd of over 1,200 saw five different Rams quarterbacks take the field. Noah Pelletier, entering his second season as Regina’s starter, went 7-of-16 through the air for 94 yards.
First-year pivot from Langley, BC, Owen Sieben, connected with Jevon Garwood for a 57-yard catch in Regina’s longest play from scrimmage. Sieben finished the game 6-for-6 for 89 yards in his first outing in a Rams uniform. Garwood, also playing in his first game with the Horns, added a touchdown along the ground in the third quarter.
Riley Richards, out of Yorkton Regional High School, recorded a second-half sack for the Green and Gold.
The Rams open up the Canada West schedule on Friday, September 1st, versus the visiting UBC Thunderbirds. Kickoff is slated for 7 p.m.
