The Saints, an NCAA Division III college squad from Duluth, Minn., downed a team of Manitoba Major Football League all-stars 31-9 on Sunday afternoon at Canad Inns Stadium in the second annual Can-Am Bowl.
The game used a hybrid of American and Canadian rules. The first half was played with 11 players a side, and the second half used 12 players on both sides of the line of scrimmage. The three-down rule was used for the entire game.
The Saints put on a kids camp prior to the game, and both teams gathered for a banquet on Saturday night.
“It’s a good, positive event,” MMFL president Laura Shea said.
The MMFL consists of six teams and is for players between the ages of 18 and 22.
