TORONTO 0-2 AFTER LANCERS SLASH BLUES 30-3

The University of Toronto Varsity Blues (0-2) fell 30-3 to the host Windsor Lancers (2-0) at University of Windsor stadium in the lone night game on the first Saturday of OUA regular season play.

Andrew Lomasney (Toronto) got the Blues on the board, notching a 36-yard field goal in the final minute of the game to break up the Windsor shutout.

For the Lancers, the running tandem of Paul Lefaive (Markham, Ont.) and Kamar Anglin (Newmarket, Ont.) would be the Blues nemesis on this evening. Lefaive finished with an impressive 148 rushing yards on 18 carries and a touchdown, while Anglin added 53 yards on the ground with a pair of touchdowns.

The ‘big play’ would also prove costly for Toronto as Windsor quarterback Dan Carloni (Kleinburg, Ont.) connected on a 79-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Brescacin (Tecumseh, Ont.) on his second throw of the game to give the Lancers a 7-0 lead at the end of the first quarter.

The second quarter didn’t see any scoring until the 2:55 mark when Anglin punched in his first TD from six yards out to put the Lancers up 14-0 at the end of the first half.

Toronto conceded a touchback halfway through the third, giving the hosts a 16-0 lead and the only score in the quarter.

Lefaive continued his dominating rushing performance in the fourth with a 44-yard dash to the end zone to put the game out of reach, 23-0, for the Varsity Blues. The Lancers would add the final dagger as Carloni led the Windsor offence on a 40-yard charge, capped off by a two-yard run by Anglin for his second touchdown of the night.

Blues starting quarterback Andrew Gillis (Markham, Ont.) was 3-of -9 for 21 yards, while back-up quarterback Jansen Shrubb (Toronto) faired a little better, completing 14 of 26 passes for 174 yards.

Rookie receiver Paul de Pass (Ajax, Ont.) caught nine passes for 96 yards to lead the Blues.

Lancer quarterback Dan Carloni finished 7-of -13 passing for 163 yards and one touchdown.

The Varsity Blues are back at home this coming Friday, Sept. 18. Kick-off is set for 7 p.m. at Varsity Centre.
