Greetings Gael fans. Many thanks for all the
positive comments about last week. The
team played well at times but we all know
there is a lot of work to do. Kudos to Mike
Giffin for a gritty offensive performance and 3
TDs. The defense stood tall for the third
week in a row.
The Windsor Lancers are a very physical squad that is very athletic. They have made a living using pressure defense and being disruptive. The offense is anchored by a superb runner named Daryl Stephenson and a big play receiver named Glen Mackay. The offensive line is big and beasty and when the first team QB Dan Lumley is playing the Lancers have multiple threats. It will take a full team effort to get out of Windsor with a win. See ya on The Score - Saturday 7 PM. |

Take one pretty good university football team, subtract one senior quarterback, one tackle, the starting fullback and the all- Canadian tailback. What have you got? The Windsor Lancers.
Although Lancers coach Mike Morencie says almost all of those people are better, even the ones who play tomorrow night against the Queen's Golden Gaels will be nowhere close to 100 per cent. Of the four who didn't play last week in Windsor's loss to Waterloo, only fullback Phil Mancini is assured of not playing against Queen's. Morencie said the team got word Wednesday night he's likely gone for the season with a knee injury. The others: |

Morencie hopes Lancers QB can make
difference
BY JIM PARKER STAR SPORTS WRITER Quarterback Dan Lumley's value to the University of Windsor Lancers can't be measured in stats. After watching the Lancers unravel in the
second half last week, Lancers head coach
Mike Morencie is sure the presence of
Lumley would have made a
difference.
After being sidelined by injury last week, Morencie is hoping to have Lumley back in the lineup Saturday when the Lancers host Queen's for homecoming. "We need his leadership." Morencie said. |

September 19, 2007 It's a winding road to follow, how passing up an opportunity in the Canadian Football League led Bill Burke to buy an Ontario Hockey League team and install it in St. Catharines, Ont. When Burke was a running back at Wilfrid Laurier University in the late 1970s, he decided to finish his economics degree and get started on his career instead of attending training camps of the Calgary Stampeders or the Toronto Argonauts. The former drafted him, and the latter acquired his rights from the Stamps. Fast forward to 2005, when his son, Billy, playing both hockey and football at Queen's University at the time, was recruited by the OHL's Barrie Colts. |
