The Hamilton Tiger-Cats would like to congratulate the Hamilton Hurricanes on winning the 2010 Ontario Football Conference Junior Championship and would like to wish both the McMaster Marauders Football Team and the Hamilton Hurricanes good luck this weekend.

McMaster will be hosting their own playoff game this Saturday against the defending Vanier Cup Champion Queen’s Gaels at Ron Joyce Stadium at 1:00 p.m. The Marauders finished in third place in the OUA and have already defeated Queen’s this season. McMaster is also encouraging fans to wear Halloween costumes to the game and the best costume will win a limo ride from Hamilton Limo, a night at the Crowne Plaza and dinner. For more information on tickets for the game, click here, or call McMaster Athletics at 905-525-9140 x 20353.

The Hurricanes pulled out a last second victory in the Ontario Football Conference Junior Championship over the Ottawa Sooners at Ivor Wynne Stadium last weekend. They will move on to the national playoffs and will face the two-time national champion V.I. Raiders from B.C. in the Intergold Cup, the Canadian junior football national semi-final.
