Among those picked following a Canada-wide eight-city tryout and identification process — chosen by a 33-person selection committee led by operations director Clint Uttley — are Saskatoon’s Cameron Friesen (offensive lineman/Bethlehem), Tyson Krushelniski (linebacker/Bishop James Mahoney), Zach Lepage (offensive lineman/Holy Cross), Sean Lozada (defensive lineman/BJM), Leif Magnuson (defensive end/Bethlehem/Clarkson Secondary football academy) and Tanner Reiber (defensive back/BJM).

“It’s pretty awesome to do this, considering that some of the guys on the team from Saskatchewan have been playing football together for a long time now,” said Magnuson, a 6-foot-5, 240-pound Grade 11 student.
