Special Teams: Perri Scarcelli, Regina

Regina kicker Perri Scarcelli was perfect on Friday night, hitting all four of his field goal attempts in a 19-13 win over Saskatchewan in a Canada West semifinal game.

Scarcelli hit field goals from 22, 19, 17, and 37 yards and also connected on his only point-after attempt. He also had six punts, pinning the Huskies inside their own 20-yard line on three of them. His four field goals set a team record for most in a single playoff game.

Offence: Scott McHenry, Saskatchewan

Third-year player Scott McHenry was valuable in keeping the Saskatchewan Huskies close to winning in a 19-13 loss Friday against the Regina Rams.

The Arts and Science student made six catches on the game for 108-yards. His longest catch was a 29 yarder. He also helped keep the Huskies alive on third downs, becoming the go to man at that point. McHenry is from Saskatoon and a graduate of the strong Holy Cross Crusaders football program.

Defence: Stan Van Sichem, Regina

Regina defensive end Stan Van Sichem was a terror on the defensive line for the Rams during their 19-13 semifinal win over Saskatchewan on Friday night, registering a total of four sacks and forcing one fumble.

Three of Van Sichem’s four sacks came in the second quarter alone, helping the Rams hold the Huskies to just three points heading into halftime. One of his sacks on Saskatchewan quarterback Laurence Nixon resulted in a fumble, which was recovered by linebacker Mat Nesbitt and led to a field goal that tied the game at three.

Van Sichem’s four sacks added up to a total loss of 30 yards.
