Cahoon Makes It 100 Straight Games Against Lions


MONTREAL - Consistency has been a mainstay through Ben Cahoon's career in the Canadian Football League and now he has a nice round number to prove it.

The 36-year-old slotback made a catch for the Montreal Alouettes in their game against the B.C. Lions on Friday night, giving him at least one pass reception in 100 consecutive games.

"I hope it happens because it means that I at least caught a pass and contributed in some form or fashion," Cahoon said Thursday.

It is far from a CFL record. Donald Narcisse caught a pass in 208 straight games for the Saskatchewan Roughriders from 1987 to 1999.

Ben Cahoon did, in fact, make it 100 straight games in which he has caught at least one pass last night versus the B.C. Lions. What a great accomplishment for a truly great receiver.
