Lancers fall to Laurier

Not a pretty game for the Windsor Lancers Saturday afternoon as they suffered their second straight loss 40-7 at Laurier. Windsor's offence was stymied by the Golden Hawks and didn't get on the board until early in the 4th quarter when QB Danny Skelton hit Javonni Cunningham with a 22-yard touchdown pass at 13:02.

Golden Hawks quarterback Taylor Elgersma showed why he is one of the best quarterbacks in the country completing 27 of 36 passes for 332 yards and two touchdowns. He also had a 21-yard TD run in the second quarter to give Laurier a 17-0 lead.

Windsor had 62 yards of offence at the half and finished with 230 on the day. Laurier had 438 total yards.

One bright spot was Windsor's defence picking up four sacks to add to their USports-leading 30. Kolade Amusan leads the nation with 10.5 sacks recording two vs Laurier. Devin Veresuk and Sal Raap-Kopiyka also downed Elgersma.

The Lancers, who fall to 5-2, return home next Saturday afternoon to close out the regular season against 0-7 York at 1pm.
