Ottawa RedBlacks News Release
WINNIPEG - Ottawa REDBLACKS receiver Brad Sinopoli, has been named the 2015 Shaw Canadian Football League Most Outstanding Canadian.
Sinopoli, a Peterborough, ON native and former quarterback with the University of Ottawa Gee-Gees, collected 1,035 receiving yards, leading all national players in the category. He also had three touchdown catches and led the CFL with 471 yards after catch.
He was one of four receivers on the REDBLACKS this season to achieve 1,000 receiving yards, joining teammates Chris Williams, Enrest Jackson and Greg Ellingson.
The four receivers became just the third group of teammates to gain 1,000 receiving yards in the same CFL season since the Montreal Alouettes accomplished the feat in 2004 and 2005.
This is the second major individual football award for Sinopoli, who was selected the Hec Crighton Trophy recipient in 2010 as the top player in Canadian university football after an outstanding season at quarterback for the Gee-Gees.
