By Les Lazaruk Nov 24, 2022 | 2:19 PM

U Sports released the list of 2022 football All-Canadians Thursday with Laval having six of their players on the first team and one on the second team. The Rouge et Or’s opponents in Saturday’s Vanier Cup in London, Ontario, the U of S Huskies, have one player on the first team and three players on the second dream squad.

Dogs’ receiver Daniel Perry is on the first team while place-kicker David Solie, defensive halfback Charlie Ringland and quarterback Mason Nyhus are on the second team. Nyhus was named the Canada West Conference player-of-the-year, but he is a second-team All-Canadian behind Laval signal-caller Arnaud Desjardins. The two will collide in Saturday’s championship game for team bragging rights. Following are the All-Canadian players…..
