Lions regain competitive spirit

By GRANT KERR
Canadian Press

VANCOUVER — The competitive spirits of the British
Columbia Lions have been rekindled by the approaching
Canadian Football League playoffs, head coach Don
Matthews said Tuesday.

The defending Grey Cup ghampions won their second
straight game after a four-game losing streak with an
emotional 26-20 vietory in Winnipeg last Sunday. They meet
the Blue Bombers in a rematch Saturday at B.C. Place
Stadium

“Playing Winnipeg at this time of year lent itself to
making these important games for our team,” Matthews said
at his weekly news conference. “There's a strong rivalry
between the teams.

“We played harder knowing that the playoffs are
around the corner. Our-offensive performance really helped
the team.”

their wind-up golf and lunch Club events and tourna.

The Lions and Bombers both have 11-@ records — B. Cc.
has beaten Winnipeg twice this year — and the Lions can
finish second in the Western Division with a win or tie
Saturday.

Under the new CFL playoff format this year, four teams
from the West will qualify for post-season play.

A B.G win or tie would allow the Lions to play host to
one western semifinal against Winnipeg. with the first place
Edmonton Eskimos playing at home against the Calgary
Stampeders in the other semi.

LOSS COSTLY

If the Lions lose their last game, they would drop to
fourth place with an 11-7 record, with third being awarded to
Calgary on the basis of outscoring B.C. 47-32 after the teams
split two regular-season games.

Matthews said better protection by the offensive line
for quarterback Roy Dewalt was a key to the victory over
Winnipeg. He also applauded the blocking of running backs

John Henry White and Anthony Parker oi blitzing Bomber

linebackers.

“Good protection always adds to the quarterback’s con
fidence,” Matthews said. “I think it was about this time last
year that Roy had some great games and took us all the way

to the Grey Cup.

“As long as he’s healthy and has an adequate amount of
time, he's a dangerous football player.”

The Lions will be forced into numerous lineup changes
for the next game. Linebacker Kevin Konar (knee ligament
damage) and backup receiver Seott Lecky (broken ankle) are
out for the rest of the season.

Konar was injured in Winnipeg and replaced by Bernie
Glier, who broke a finger on B.C.'s last defensive play and is

doubtful for the rematch.

Lecky, a valuable member of the special teams unit, was
playing basketball Monday as part of the Lions’ post-game,
muscle-stretching routine and broke his ankle.
