While it won’t be expected to live up to the “Best Game Ever” that the teams played in last November’s Vanier Cup, it has been confirmed that the McMaster Football team will travel to Quebec City to face the Laval Rouge et Or in a pre-season game in preparation for the 2012 CIS season.
Coach Ptaszek says another trip to Laval is a very exciting prospect. “Practicing and playing the premier team in the nation is the best possible way to prepare for the OUA regular season. I expect that both Rouge et Or and Marauder fans will be tremendously excited to see a rematch of the 2011 Vanier Cup,” Ptaszek said.
The game will be played on Sunday, August 26 at PEPS Stadium on the Laval campus with a 1 p.m. kick-off.
