Nov 18th, 2000: uOttawa 20, McMaster 15 (Churchill Bowl)

Playoff game summaries for the 2000 National Champion Gee-Gees have been added to their page but because this Churchill Bowl summary was awkwardly displayed, I'm putting it into a post to link to from that page.

1999 QMJFL Championship: Ottawa Jr. Riders 33, Chateauguay Raiders 09

The Ottawa Jr. Riders kicked off their season last night in Chateauguay. Unfortunately, they were on the wrong end of a 19-16 score.

These two teams have quite a bit of history. The article below is but one example of it. I wish it were more focused on the actual game than sideline...uhm...interactions between the two teams, but it will have to do for the moment.


It is likely too small to read as is, so click on the image then right click to open a larger version in a new window.

The Jr. Riders had defeated the Raiders in the previous year's championship game as well. If my record-keeping is sound, receiver Richard Tremblay was the league's outstanding offensive player and defensive back Scott Gordon its MVP.

1998 QMJFL Championship: Ottawa Jr. Riders 24, Chateauguay Raiders 09

While I enjoyed sharing results of the Ottawa Jr. Riders' most recent championship win, this site is intended to shine a little spotlight on past events more so than current ones.

With that in mind, I will now share that team's first such success from 1998, their second year of operation under that name.


The full results from the 1998 season will be added to the Jr Riders page shortly.

Dean Dorsey, the former Ottawa Rough Riders kicker, would step down as head coach following the season but the team remained quite successful with Dan Murphy, also a former Rough Rider, at the helm.

Tucker McCabe was named the league's rookie of the year and the following players were selected to be on the all-star team.

  • Mike Borotsik - Centre
  • Billy Conlin - OL
  • Jacob Kyer - OL
  • Richard Tremblay - WR
  • Paul Fury - LB
  • Steve Kasouf - LB
  • Scott Gordon - FS

Scott Gordon went on to win a National Championship with the Gee-Gees in 2000. He was drafted in the second round of the 2002 draft by Calgary and played professionally through the 2009 season, mostly with Saskatchewan. He earned a Grey Cup ring with that team in 2007.
