Hojo Express vs.SS Trojans won by Hojo, 24-20. Wow!Both QB's - HoJo 's Aaron Giesbrecht and Trojans Eric Rout must have combined for 1000 yards passing, last Sunday afternoon at Maple Grove.

For the first time in many years I saw a QB/Receiver tandem operate with the QB hitting the receiver as he came out of the break. (Wilcox/Giesbrecht)

That coupled with the Trojan's Rout /Persad instant TD combo.

Both those teams played like they should be competing for the Provincial Championship.....but hey we don't have one???

Maybe it's time we did. Either one of those teams would have challenged for the title Best team in Manitoba, based on last Sunday.

Looking forward to watching that matchup in the future!

Great to hear. SS I know has a ton of talent. They could be in Division 1 or 2. How's this for a stat, a humble team called the Mighty Schmucks ripped SS Trojans apart last year in the playoffs. No superstars. Just great team chemistry :)

I'm not arguing about who has the better team. You guys have some of the best athletes in the league.

All I'm saying is it's not always about superstars when it comes to playoff time. You guys were clearly superior, and yet we beat you by 3 TD's. You destroyed competition throughout the regular season, and probably didn't face much adversity during that time. When the adversity did come, at the most critical time in your season, you guys folded.
