Carlton goes back-to-back at eleventh annual Canadian Tire Classic
The Carlton Crusaders recaptured the Canadian Tire Classic title in its eleventh annual game, downing their Prince Albert rival St. Mary Marauders 51-14 at Max Clunie Field.
This is Carlton’s second year in a row that they won the rivalry game as they defeated St. Mary by an identical 51-14 score last season.
Although things ended in favour of the Cru, St. Mary were the ones who broke the ice early on.
On the Marauders first drive of the game, a reverse play in the backfield fooled the Carlton defense and created a massive hole for Griffon Johns to run through, taking it 65 yards to the house to put St. Mary up 7-0.
