Okanagan blows out hometown Langley Rams Sunday in BCFC action

A 19 1/2-hour postponement did nothing to impede the Okanagan Sun.

The B.C. Football Conference leaders ran their unbeaten record to 6-0 with a 52-10 pounding of the defending champion Rams Sunday in Langley.

Originally scheduled for Saturday night, the game was called off when high winds knocked out the power at McLeod Athletic Park.

The weather wasn’t ideal on Sunday afternoon either, but it didn’t prevent the Sun from blowing open a close game in the third quarter, much like they did the first time the clubs met on Aug. 15 at the Apple Bowl.

Leading 15-7, the Sun scored the next 37 points to put the game away.

Cam Bedore fired four touchdown passes in the second half to Shai Ross, Lerone Robinson, Kyle Patchell and Kyle Kawamoto.

Ross also caught a touchdown pass from Josiah Joseph in the first half.

Brennan Van Nistelrooy enjoyed another stellar outing in the secondary, grabbing his conference-leading fifth interception to set up Ross’s first major.

Van Nistelrooy also blocked a punt which JP Kalambay recovered in the end zone for six points.

The Sun now have a week off before returning to action Sunday, Sept. 13 at home to the Vancouver Island Raiders (4-2). Kick off at the Apple Bowl is 1 p.m.
