Rider alumni pick different sides to carry team to championship
Defense wins championships, but the off-season acquisitions made by the Riders this winter has one Roughrider alum thinking the offense is the side to watch.
“Look at a player like (Kory) Sheets. If he can be what he was last year in this system that (George) Cortez runs, you're going to see him put up huge numbers,” said former Rider wide-receiver and 2007 Grey Cup Champion Matt Dominguez.
“If Darian (Durant) can be a point guard and not force the issue, just deliver, he will have big numbers as well,” Dominguez said.
On Thursday, Riderville North held a VIP event at the Sheraton Cavalier where alumni, coaches and corporate partners had a chance to mix and mingle with Rider all-time-greats like 1966 Grey Cup Champion Dale West.
