Growing up in the cold tundra known to many as Winterpeg, being in love with the sport of hockey is almost a right of passage as a Canadian. Every young boy and girl dreams about lacing up their skates and playing pro hockey and wearing the maple leaf on their chest.
But for one young boy, it was never in the stars. Logan grew up wanting to play hockey but no matter how hard he tried, skating was not his forte. He would play street hockey with his friends and most of those games ended with him delivering a punishing hit to someone who thought they could be fancy and show off their stick work. Little did he know, his love for physical dominance would be what would lead him down another unsuspecting path.
A path to the ISFL.
Now at the age of 20, having played two tremendous years for his local university team, The University of Manitoba Bisons as a linebacker, he is ready to embark on the next great journey of his life.
His freshman season saw him get slotted as the 2nd string linebacker behind a promising senior who had a bright future ahead of him as a professional football player. He could have declared for the draft after his junior year and would have been a lock to be a top 5 pick, but chose instead to remain in school to finish his degree in architecture in case his football career didn't work out.
Well, as fate would have it, when the defense lined up against the Calgary Dinos in their first game of the season, that promising senior went down in a horrific injury that ended not only his season, but any hope of playing football again.
Enter baby faced freshman, Logan Sarrasin. Having just watched someone he looked up to go down in a scarring injury, he strapped on his helmet when his coach called his number.
He entered the game with 3:49 left in the 3rd quarter, his team down 34-20. Those Dinos had no idea what was about to happen.
If you ask Mr. Sarrasin what happened after the ball was snapped, he'll tell you he blacked out and when he came to, he was standing over the other team's quarterback, with the ball no where to be seen. The ball was snapped and his instincts took over. Number 38 juked out the defensive end assigned to cover him and made a B-line right for the QB. He hit him so hard the ball was jarred from his grip and bounced a dozen or so feet away, picked up by a fellow Bison, who proceeded to return it to the 4 yard line before finally being taken down by a receiver and the running back.
He finished the game with 2 sacks, 1 forced fumble and 9 tackles, 5 of which were for a loss of yardage, in route to the Bisons making a comeback and winning the game 41-37, helping limit the opposing team to only 1 converted field goal for the remainder of the game.
That season, he led his team to a 7-1 record while finishing the season with 7.5 sacks, 79 tackles (27 TFL), 4 FF, 1 INT and 1 TD. The Bisons won the Vanier Cup.
His sophomore year saw much of the same defensive dominance, completing the season with a stat line of 9 sacks, 82 tackles (21 TFL), 5 FF. Having come very close to helping the Bisons become the only team to win back-to-back Vanier Cups since the 1969-1970 Bisons, but ultimately losing in the finals in a defensive battle, with a final score of 10-7, he decided it was time to move on and has announced his intention to enter into the 2040 DSFL Draft and begin his professional football career.
This sport will never be the same.
