SAINTS LOSE TO HARD RUNNING BLUES

The Quebec Saints concluded their back to back road trip to Toronto with a narrow loss to the top of the table Central Blues last Saturday. The undermanned Saints called on some help from their Angels, Eagles and Gargoyle friends to take on the Blues. The match started off as a goal for goal battle - but the hard running Blues with a little boost of talent in their own ranks managed to skip away to a three goal break and seemingly have the game under control. Sensational efforts by Cam Stark, Ash Gasperino, Lindsay Belzie and Mat Wilson gave the Saints one last surge at the Blues in the final quarter drawing to within a few points but two late goals to the Navy Blues gave them enough to get over the line. Central Blues 6.8 (44) defeated the Quebec Saints 4.8 (32)

TOP OF THE LADDER BATTLE THIS WEEK

The Quebec Saints will travel to Toronto this coming weekend to take on the Toronto Central Blues in what will be a battle for top spot on the Division 2 ladder. The two arch rival teams finished '09 first and second and will be battling to snare the "PARKER ANDERSON CUP" which is on the line. The Central Blues have stepped up their Division 2 program this year and have emerged as premiership favourites while the Saints have a distinctly different look blooding seven new players un round one. The game will be the fifth head to head between the two clubs, the Saints currently having the edge at three games to one, 2-0 at home in Ottawa and 1-1 on the road in Toronto. The match will kick off at 2PM at the University of Toronto field.
