Calgary’s Peyton Logan returned a punt 50 yards to the B.C. 30-yard line to start the second quarter. Three plays later, Maier threw a nine-yard TD pass to Begelton.

Lee tackled Calgary receiver Marken Michel just short of the goal line for a turnover on downs as time expired in the third quarter.

After the Lions failed to get anything going on their first two drives of the game, Adams engineered a seven-play, 83-yard drive that he finished by tossing a 14-yard touchdown pass to Berryhill.Money under the mattress: Sleep Country Canada to be bought in $1.7B deal Whyte then booted an 18-yard field goal with 1:25 remaining in the first half to pull the Lions within four points.Richardson atoned for his earlier penalty by picking off an errant pass by Adams to end a B.C. scoring threat with 24 seconds left before the intermission.
Following a 23-yard field goal by Whyte to give the Lions their first lead of the game at 20-19, Barnes scored his clutch TD. Calgary attempted a two-point convert, but Maier’s pass to Philpot in the end zone was incomplete. Maier, who also threw touchdown passes to Reggie Begelton and Jalen Philpot earlier in the game, completed 25-of-32 passes for 307 yards.
“It was a battle,” said Calgary coach Dave Dickenson. “I have to admit that never did I once feel like it was in the bag. Never once did I feel like we were out of it. Back and forth — good football game, glad we won at home.”Rene Paredes also kicked a field goal for the Stamps, who snapped a two-game losing streak. Calgary also scored two points on a safety.
“It was tough battle,” Adams said. “Ultimately, I felt like the defence did enough for us to win. I need to take care of the ball. I had some overthrows. It was a tough one. I just have to be better.” Later in the second quarter, Logan has another great runback of 31 yards to give the Stamps great field position, this time at the B.C. 34-yard line. Once again, it took Calgary just three plays to score as Philpot did a great job to haul in a 23-yard TD pass from Maier.
