Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks’ quarterback Taylor Elgersma has won the Hec Crighton Trophy as the top player in U Sports football. The six-foot-six, 212-pound native of London, Ont. completed 74.1 percent of his passes for 3,765 yards, 32 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions this season, going 11-0 as a starter. He also carried the ball 40 times for 223 yards and six scores. The fourth-year passer has thrown for 9,984 yards, 74 touchdowns, and 28 interceptions over the course of his U Sports career. He is eligible for the 2025 CFL Draft. Elgersma is the first member of the Golden Hawks to win the award since quarterback Bill Kubas did in 1994. He beat out Laval QB Arnaud Desjardins, Manitoba QB Jackson Tachinski, and Bishop’s QB Justin Quirion to win the award. Previous winners of the Hec Crighton Trophy include Edmonton Elks’ quarterback Tre Ford, Toronto Argonauts’ receiver Kevin Mital, and former CFL players Brad Sinopoli, Andy Fantuz, Jesse Lumsden, and Éric Lapointe. #USports #Lau...
