Aug 31, 2024 at 10:08 PM ETVICTORIA — The B.C. Lions snapped their losing skid in impressive fashion Saturday, blitzing the Ottawa Redblacks 38-12 at the CFL's first-ever game in Victoria, B.C.
Kicker Sean Whyte added a 12-yard field goal and five converts for the Lions. Ottawa's Lewis Ward contributed a pair of field goals, including one from 53 yards out. The Lions were the dominant side from the start with running back William Stanback giving his side a 31-yard gain on their first play. Rourke and his teammates steadily worked their way up the field early in the second half before dishing off to Alexander Hollins in the end zone for the Canadian quarterback's first touchdown pass since returning to the CFL earlier this month. B.C.'s lead grew to 17-0 with an extra point from Whyte.
Ward cut Ottawa's deficit to 24-6 with a 45-yard field goal with less than two minutes to go in the first half, but the Lions refused to relent.
