DIAN CHAMPION | Thursday, July 14, 2016 | 54 < Z < 0 Z o € 6 o c 6 2 © € o S w & Sewell refuses to report to Roughnders Matt Sewell is apparently a man of his word. During the 2013 CFL Combines, the now _ 26â€"yearâ€"old 8 Milton _ offensive lineman told teams he only wanted to play for Toronto or Hamâ€" iIton â€" allowing him to remain close to home. He‘s now backed Matt Sewell that up by refusing to report to the Saskatchewan Roughriders since beâ€" ing traded by the Argonauts â€" along with quarterback Mitchell Gale â€" for disgruntled defensive end Shawn Lemon on July 2. His status is now listed as retired, and there‘s been no word on compenâ€" sation for Saskatchewan. Efforts to contact the towering lineman, who‘s been quiet since the trade, have been unsuccessful. A 6â€"footâ€"8, 330â€"pound lineman who was an OUA and CIS allâ€"star with Mcâ€" Master University â€" helping them to a Vanier Cup victory in 2011 â€" Sewell earned a contract with the Tennessee Titans after an impressive rookie mini camp. He opted instead to return to McMa«r*2r to complete a oneâ€"year accelerated MBA program. Sewell spent much of his two years with the Argonauts as a backâ€"up left tackle. l Laeticia Amihere (left) goes up against Mexico‘s Patricia Ayala for a loose ball during the FIBA Underâ€"17 Word Championships in Spain.
