Such was the nature of the Ottawa RedBlacks takedown of the defending Grey Cup Champion Calgary Stampeders last week, that the RedBlacks swept all three positions from the Shaw Top Performers for Week Five.
Henry Burris led the trio of RedBlacks topping the polls thanks to an Ottawa franchise passing record as he led the Ottawa comeback to victory over the Stamps on Friday evening.
The defensive play for Ottawa also gained recognition as the selection panel took note of the work of Aston Whiteside, the RedBlacks Defensive Lineman made life a misery for the Stamps backfield, recording two tackles, a pair of sacks, two forced fumbles and fumble recovery for his night's work.
Rounding out the RedBlack sweep is Chris Williams who recorded seven receptions for a total of 162 yards on the night, including a spellbinding 84 yard touchdown catch at the midway point of the final quarter.
