Men's Rugby 2009 OCAA Division 2 Champions
The Loyalist Lancers Men’s Rugby teamed capped off a perfect season on Wednesday, November 4th by capturing the OCAA Division 2 Championship on their home field. In front of a huge crowd, the Lancers controlled the game from the opening 
kick. Just a few minutes in Lancer Corey Black scored the game’s first try followed by three more tries before the first half ended. Chad Baerwinkel, Nick Imrie and Seam McMurtry scored the other tries for Loyalist. Justin Voskamp added two converts to push the half time lead to 24-0. The big lead gave the Lancer coaching staff a chance to use their bench. Rookie Shane Christie scored the team’s last try. Late in the game Georgian was finally able to penetrate the stingy Lancer defense for their only score on the day. Final score was Loyalist 29 Georgian 5.
Ryan Fergusson of the Lancers was named the “Man of the Match”. Fergusson had an outstanding game which included blocking three Grizzlies kicks. Two of the blocks led to Lancers tries. In addition to collecting their Gold Medals and the Championship trophy the Lancers received the League regular season trophy for their perfect 6-0 record. Several players were also recognized with individual awards. Chad Baerwinkel and Nick Imrie were named OCAA League All Stars. Justin Voskamp won the Division 2 scoring title. Eric Early was named Rookie of the Year and second year standout Sean 
McMurtry was honored with the Player of the Year award. Coaches Larry Cook, Rob Cooke and Ken Fitzgerald were named Coaches of the Year.
