## Resource

The B.C. Lions finally broke their winless streak with a thrilling 36-24 victory over the previously undefeated Edmonton Elks, fueled by a dominant performance from running back James Butler and a breakout game from quarterback Nathan Rourke. With over 300 passing yards and key touchdowns from Zander Horvath, the Lions surged ahead in a high-scoring first half, then sealed the win with a crucial fourth-quarter interception by Darnell Sankey. Despite Edmonton’s quarterback Cody Fajardo throwing for three scores, three interceptions—including two in the second half—proved costly. The Lions’ defense held firm, limiting Justin Rankin’s impact and energizing the crowd at the Apple Bowl. Now with momentum on their side, the Lions prepare for their next challenge as the Elks turn their attention to the Ottawa Redblacks.
