Jonah Pataki of Wallaceburg has been invited to the CFL combine based on Friday’s results at the Ontario regional combine.

Only five players from the regional combine at Varsity Stadium were invited to the national combine March 23-25 in Regina.

Pataki, a Queen’s Golden Gaels running back, had the second-highest vertical jump (36 inches) and the second-fastest shuttle time (4.23 seconds). He also had the fifth fastest 40-yard dash time (4.84 seconds). Forty-two players, including Windsor Lancers kicker/punter Clark Green of Chatham, attended the regional combine and worked out in front of scouts from all CFL teams. The roster for the national CFL combine is now at 45 prospects, with one more regional combine to be held March 23 in Regina. The CFL draft is May 7.

The six-foot-one, 213-pound Pataki has played four seasons at Queen’s. He rushed for 814 yards and seven touchdowns in 2016. He averaged 5.5 yards per carry and 101.8 yards per game. He played in the 2016 East West Bowl last May.
