Posted on Nov. 1: Eight Marauders named OUA all-stars

The undefeated McMaster Marauders got another touchdown, only this time, off the football field.

Eight Marauder football players were named all-stars by Ontario University Athletics (OUA), as voted by the ten OUA football head coaches.

McMaster's all-stars include star running back Kyle Pyear who led the OUA and CIS in rushing for most of the season. The two-time all-star also broke an OUA record for most rushing attempts in a game with 39 at McMaster's Homecoming game against Laurier on Sept 28.

Other McMaster all-stars include: Dave Forde on the offensive line; linebacker Ray Mariuz; Colin Shanahan, on the defensive line; defensive-half Brandon Little; placekicker Michael Ray; linemate Fabio Filic; and cornerback Kwame Aidoo.

The road to the Yates Cup continues this weekend as the defending champions McMaster Marauders will host the York Yeomen Saturday at 1 p.m. The Western Mustangs travel to Kingston to meet the Queen's Golden Gaels. The winners of each game will meet in the 104th Yates Cup Championship Saturday, Nov. 9 at 1 p.m.
