THINK PINK
Queen's partnered with the AMS ReUnion Street Festival and the Canadian Cancer Society for Think Pink Day as Gaels fans added pink to their Tricolour outfits. Donations were also accepted by the Canadian Cancer Society throughout the game.
GAME FLOW
Things got off to a slow start as the two teams traded punts early on in the opening quarter. Ottawa's offence was finally the first to get going and they found the scoreboard on a Sawyer Buettner 10-yard pass to Carter Matheson for a touchdown.
Early in the second quarter, the Gee-Gees offence forced a Gaels fumble into their own end zone. Francis Perron jumped on the loose ball for Ottawa and they held an early 14-0 lead.
After a field goal from Nick Liberatore to get Queen's on the board, the Gaels blocked a Gee-Gees punt and recovered the football setting up another strike from the Queen's kicker. After Ottawa tacked on a late field goal, Queen's was down just 17-6 at halftime.
Nate Hobbs connected on a big catch-and-run play to Matteo Del Brocco for a 71 yard gain down to the Ottawa 1-yard line. Hobbs kept for himself and scored his ninth rushing touchdown of the season.
Down 20-15 Ottawa connected on a 37-yard field goal and followed up with a Buettner two-yard rushing score to extend their lead to 27-15.
Queen's was able to score one more time as Hobbs hit Chris Osei-Kusi over the middle of the field for a 30-yard touchdown.
That was as close as the Gaels would get however as the Gee-Gees spoiled the Gaels homecoming with a 27-22 win.
