Josh has garnered his second Offensive Player of the Week as he continues his assault on the N.F.C. Record Book. Versus North Bay, he galloped 12 times for 260 yards that included touchdown runs of 44, 32, 17, 14 and 51 yards as the Steelers remained undefeated with a 66-7 win.

Scoring chart updated

Please take note that the updated scoring chart is attached. There are two things missing, but they do not affect what is there. With two games to go, the Sault's Josh Gauthier has eclipsed the single season rushing touchdown mark of 17 that was held by Butch Pelletier of the North Bay Ti Cats set back in 1965. His two rushing majors this past week in Scarborough, give him 18 for the season. Gauthier is now in sight of the single season points mark of 162 set in 1995 by Andrew Wells of the Hamilton Wildcats.

Hope to have all stats updated and posted later this week.
