The Saskatchewan Roughriders fell short in earning a berth into the Grey Cup after a 20-13 loss to the visiting Winnipeg Blue Bombers in the CFL’s West Division Final yesterday (Sun) at Mosaic Stadium.
The Bombers meet the East Division’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Sunday’s championship game in Calgary. The Ticats downed the Edmonton Eskimos 36-16 in Sunday’s East final.
Kenny Lawler caught a touchdown pass and Justin Medlock kicked four field goals for Winnipeg.
Roughriders kicker Brett Lauther had four field goals in the loss.
Winnipeg last played in a Grey Cup in 2011 when the Bombers fell 34-23 to the host B.C. Lions and the Blue and Gold hasn’t won the CFL’s big game since 1990.
