Ravens 19 Rouge et Or 17
Sunday, Sept. 27, 1998 STE-FOY, Que. - Carleton's Jim McMillan kicked four field goals, three in the third quarter, as the Ravens came back from a 16-3 half-time deficit to beat No. 6 Laval Rouge et Or 19-17 Sunday afternoon in a CIAU football game. The win was the first of the Ontario-Quebec conference season for Carleton (1-3), which scored 16 unanswered points in the third quarter. Also featured in that big quarter against Laval (2-2) was a touchdown pass from quarterback James Baker to Ed Joseph. Three Laval quarterbacks combined for 136 yards passing, but the Ravens intercepted four passes, two by Steve Robinson. Laval's Daniel Fleury had five punt returns to 198 yards, including a 115-yard scoring play in the second quarter. The other Rouge et Or touchdown also was an electric play - a 56-yard run by Mathieu Brassard.
