OTTAWA (CIS) - Canadian Interuniversity Sport announced Thursday the 85 football players who will participate in the ninth annual East West Bowl, presented by Under Armour, on Saturday, May 7, 2010 at TD Waterhouse Stadium on the campus of The University of Western Ontario in London, Ont.

University of Saskatchewan Huskie All-Canadians Ben Heenan and Bryce McCall, as well as defensive back Keenan MacDougall have all been selected to the game that features top eligible prospects in the 2011 CFL Entry Draft. The three follow a long list of Huskie players that have suited up in the game including now CFL players J Dylan Barker and Scott McHenry. Heenan played in the 2010 East-West Bowl, while McCall and MacDougall will all be in the game for the first time.

Huskie head coach Brian Towriss and defensive coordinator Ed Carleton will join the coaching staff for Team West. Towriss will look after the field goal unit, while Carleton will be in charge of punting.

“It is an honor to be able to represent the Huskie football program and the University of Saskatchewan on the national level,” said Heenan. “I look forward to competing against the best that the CIS has offer.”

Heenan helped the Huskies to the top scoring offence with 287 points, total offence averaging 499.8 yards per game and the second-best rushing offence in the conference at 172.9 yards per game. Safety McCall had 26.5 tackles and four interceptions for the Huskies and sits just six away from the all-time CIS interceptions record after just three seasons. MacDougall finished the season with 35 tackles, two interceptions, one forced fumble and one kick return.

Western is hosting the game for the third straight year. The contest was previously held at McMaster (2008), Laval (2007, 2006) and Wilfrid Laurier (2005, 2004, 2003). Kickoff for the 2011 affair is set for 1 p.m.

The week-long event also includes the East West Bowl Free Agent Camp on May 4, as well as a coaches' clinic on May 6 and 7.

Glen Constantin, head coach of the reigning Vanier Cup champion Laval Rouge et Or, will lead the East squad in London while Blake Nill, who has guided his Calgary Dinos to back-to-back Vanier Cup appearances, will be in charge of the West contingent for the second straight year.
