Duron Carter with two TDs, 131 receiving yards as Riders beat Argos 38-27
REGINA — A record-setting performance from Ricky Ray wasn’t enough for the Toronto Argonauts to overcome the hot hands of Kevin Glenn and Duron Carter.
Carter’s highlight-reel touchdown grab was one of four touchdown passes Glenn threw on Saturday that pushed the Saskatchewan Roughriders to a 38-27 victory over the Argos at Mosaic Stadium.
Carter enjoyed a breakout game in green and white and brought the sellout crowd to its feet with his spectacular one-handed catch in the end zone that evened the score at 17-17 going into halftime.
“I just knew I needed to make a play,” Carter said after his nine-reception, 131-yard, two-touchdown effort. “We were down going into halftime and I was already a little bit frustrated with how the game was going and I just told Kevin to throw it up to me and I knew I needed to catch it.”
