Stampeders lead Argos at halftime in snowy Grey Cup affair

After the first quarter, the Calgary Stampeders took an early 6-0 lead against the Toronto Argonauts in a snowy Grey Cup affair.

With the ball on the Argos’ 33, the Stampeders decided to go for it on third down and successfully converted as Calgary quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell found Kamer Jorden for a 33-yard score to draw first blood.

Rather than kick the extra point, the Stampeders attempted a two-point conversion but were unsuccessful.

On the first play of the second quarter, Argos quarterback Ricky Ray connected with DeVier Posey for a 100-yard touchdown.

The reception was the longest in Grey Cup history.
