COMPLETE BOX SCORE

The Crusaders came out firing on all cylinders wasting no time getting on the board with a touchdown just two minutes in. The party didn’t stop there as play by play and inch by inch, Carlton marched back and forth up and down the field for the entirety of the first half, resulting in a lopsided 48-0 lead at halftime.

However, the Tigers proved themselves as a second half team because they stormed the field with the type of aggression that lacked in the opening half. Due to the new, second half look of Tommy Douglas, they stunned Carlton by forcing punts and turnovers and eventually scoring nine points in the half.

Ultimately it was the Crusaders game to lose as Carlton took down the Tigers 49-9.

Carlton is back at home for their final game of the regular season on Friday night when they welcome the Bethlehem Stars to Max Clunie Field.
