2019 OFSAA INDEPENDENT BOWL CHAMPIONS!



2019 OFSAA INDEPENDENT BOWL NELSON LORDS - 35 ASSUMPTION LIONS - 14 The Nelson Lords took home their 6th OFSAA BOWL title in school history winning the Independent Bowl for the first time with a 35-14 win at Ron Joyce Stadium as part of the 2019 OFSAA Bowl Series. A wildly entertaining game saw some fantastic plays from both sides and arguably a play of the year candidate from the Assumption side in the loss. Nelson jumped out to an early lead on a 30 yard touchdown connection from Keagan Hall to Liam Keary. Luca Rosiello would punch in a 10 yard run to put the Lords up 14-0 midway through the first quarter. A Jackson Somerville 2 yard touchdown run had Nelson running away with things midway through the second. The Lions would add a major to pull within two scores before Nelson drove the length of the field and appeared to go up 28-7. A penalty nullified the touchdown and a crazy blocked field goal return suddenly saw the score at 21-14 at the half. Nelson would take control in the second half and put the game away with an 80-yard touchdown connection from Hall to Keary. Luca Rosiello would add his second major late in the 4th to seal the Lords 6th OFSAA Victory. Nelson tallied a whopping 610 yards of offence while holding the Lions to just 162.

JR LORDS GET SHUTOUT BY RAVENS TO END SEASON


2019 JUNIOR METROBOWL PLAYOFFS ST. ROCH RAVENS - 25 NELSON LORDS - 0 The JR Lords season came to an end on a snowy and muddy field at St. Roch on Tuesday.

The Ravens would pull away in the second half and put the game out of reach. The Lords will see the remaining players from the 2018 MetroBowl team move up to the Senior ranks having won back-to-back Halton titles and keeping the streak alive as the team looks for its 7th title in 2020.
