The Trojans are looking for some help in Rocky
The team is looking for some help with Stats and filming for the game in Rocky Mountain house on Thursday.
We have game stats sheets that we fill out for each play. Casey Reed, our statistician can’t make it so I am looking for a volunteer to help fill those out.
We are also looking for someone to film the game.
I will bring everything that you will need and show you how to do it.
If you are interested in helping please contact Coach Belanger (780) 878 – 4256 or asbelanger@telus.net
Trojans fall to the Warriors 28 - 7
The Trojans traveled to Drayton Valley to face the Warriors under the lights and in the snow on Friday Sep 21. The Warriors were able to get outside the Trojan defence on their fly sweep offence and put up 205 yards rushing with 4 touchdowns on the ground. The Trojan pass coverage held the Warriors to 41 yards through the air. Leaders on defence were strong side linebacker Noah Segal with 7 tackles and 2 assists. Corbin Matson on the other side of the linebacker corps had 6 tackles 2 assists a forced fumble and a QB Sack. Aiden Brown had 4 tackles 3 assists and an interception from his safety spot. The highlight for the Trojans was a 70 yard interception return from halfback Brock Dalke which turned out to be the lone Trojans score. Noah Segal added to point after. The Trojans weren’t able to get their offence going on Friday with some misplays and costly penalties that stalled offensive drives lead by rookie quarterback Drew Forster. Forster shows his illusiveness as he lead the team in rushing with 46 yards on the ground. The Trojan pass game was unable to establish itself with only 1 completion to slot receiver Brock Dalke.
Next up for the Trojans is a Thursday game at home against the Sylvan Lake Lakers. Game time is at 4:30.

The Camrose Trojans tied the Wetaskiwin Sabres 20 – 20 in the Highway 13 Cup. Wetaskiwn as the defending cup champions will hold onto the cup until the next meeting between the two teams.
The Trojans scored first near the end of the first quarter on a Drew Loosemore run into the endzone from 10 yards out. Noah Segal added the extra point and we were on top 7 – 0. Wetaskiwin came back in the second on a seventy yard run by quarterback Lucas Bishop for the touchdown. Wetaskiwn went for 2 but the Trojan defence stopped them making the score 7 – 6 late in the second quarter. The Trojans fumbled on the next offensive series and Wetaskiwin took over. On 3rd and 10 the Trojans got caught on a pass interference penalty giving the visiting Sabres another chance. They took advantage on a deep pass from Bishop to Josh Wiebe for the touchdown. Again they went for 2 and again the Trojan Defence held them short. The half ended with Wetaskiwin on top 12 – 7. The defenses on both sides came out tough in the third quarter before the Trojans put together a 7 play drive ending when Drew Loosemore found Drew Forester in the endzone on a 6 yard passing touchdown. The Extra point for the Trojans was no good but we had the lead 13 – 12 going into the forth quarter. The Sabres punt went over Aiden Browns head but he quickly scooped it up and ran 90 yards into the endzone for a dramatic touchdown. The extra point by Segal was good and the Trojans had the lead 20 – 12. The Sabres clawed back getting to the doorstep on another deep pass play and the then a one yard run into the endzone for the touchdown. They went for 2 again and this time they crossed the goal line tieing the score 20 – 20. The Trojans got the ball at the end of the forth quarter ad were driving the field. On the 9th play of the drive with 12 seconds left in the game the Trojans lined up to punt the ball through the endzone for the single point and the win. The Wetaskiwin defence stepped up and blocked the punt which left the score tied. The time expired and the game ended in a 20 – 20 tie.
Loosemore went 7 for 12 passing for 56 yards and added 45 yards rushing on 12 carries. Brett Beirsto also ran for 73 yards on 15 carries. Jason Bennet led the team again with 6 tackles from his halfback spot and Noah Segal was next with 4.
