Warriors in the CFL: Owens, Hawthorne, Libre, Elimimian
Chad Owens had an impressive 26-yard punt return for the Montreal Alouettes in their preseason victory over Toronto.
Solomon Elimimian had four tackles for the BC Lions while Daniel Libre had 5 carries for 24 yards for the Edmonton Eskimos as BC beat Edmonton 36-32.
And Chad Owens, looking to replace the departed Larry Taylor on kick returns, had one impressive 26-yard punt return up the middle and looked solid, although Trestman said he is still deciding who will get that job.Here's another mention of Owens.
And a spot, you would figure, should also be found for Chad Owens, who joined the Als late last season. At 5-foot-8 and 180 pounds, he's perfect for the CFL -small and quick. He returned a punt 26 yards and almost broke free for a touchdown against Toronto.Also in that game, C.J. Hawthorne had 1 catch for 7 yards.
Solomon Elimimian had four tackles for the BC Lions while Daniel Libre had 5 carries for 24 yards for the Edmonton Eskimos as BC beat Edmonton 36-32.

Coach Wally Buono, of the B.C. Lions, is going with younger players this year, and Elimimian fits nicely with speed and size of players in our game up here. Especially at Linebacker where you have to be able to cover the smaller Rb's. Being a fan of the Warriors, I was happy to see another star from Hawaii make it up here. The NFL's loss is our gain here in Vancouver.
