CALGARY — Winnipeg Blue Bombers kicker Justin Medlock tied a Grey Cup record by hitting six field goals on Sunday.
The night didn’t start as planned for the 36-year-old, as he missed his first kick of the night from 48 yards out went wide right of the uprights. However, from there, he was spotless for the Bombers.
He hit from 45, 17, 39, 41, 17, and 18 yards during the championship game.
Medlock becomes just the fourth kicker to accomplish the feat. The last man to hit six before him was the BC Lions’ Paul McCallum, who did so in the 94th Grey Cup in 2006 against the Montreal Alouettes.
