#MARKSCFLWEEK RECAP: SATURDAY, MARCH 25TH
The CBC's Jill Morgan sat down with Regina football royalty Noah and Dean Picton on the big stage at CFL FanFest for Meet the Pictons, presented by CBC Saskatchewan. The two stars shared advice, memories, and hopes for the future - both for Noah, in his final year with the Regina Rams, and for his cousin Mitchell, who was participating in the combine.
The CFL Combine presented by adidas grew even more intense as prospects squared off for positional drills and one-one-ones this afternoon. Fans were treated to some big catches as players ran routes after linemen faced each other down for matchups. Receivers Daniel Vandervoort (McMaster), Mitchell Hillis (Saskatchewan), Nathaniel Behar (Carleton) and local Regina Ram Mitchell Picton impressed in the afternoon sessions, speeding through the drills and entertaining the sold-out crowd.
The leaderboard, which includes results from regional combines, can be found here.
