Steve served on the N.F.C. Executive for 16 years which included being President in 1994 and from 2002-2008. He was honoured with election to the N.F.C. Hall of Fame in 1995.

The 60th Title game is a Classic!!!!
Posted on August 17th, 2013, 10:46pmTwo teams riding 9 game winning streaks heading into their meeting for the N.F.C. Championship produced one of the best title tilts of all time as the Montreal Transit edged the Sault Ste. Marie Steelers 24-23 in the Sault. William Dion hit a 35 yard field goal with 18 seconds remaining to give the Transit the Plaunte Memorial Trophy in their initial N.F.C. campaign.
The Steelers once again rode the broad shoulders of Josh Gauthier who rumbled for 255 yards on 28 carries and two majors for the Saultites and was tabbed as the Offensive Player of the Game. Linebacker Andrew Blevings of the Transit garnered 11 tackles to take Defensive Player of the Game Honours.
Transit will now host either the St. Albert Stars or the Calgary Gators on September 28th for the Canadian Senior Title.
