Tue 31st, August 2010

Toronto, ON (Sports Network) - Calgary Stampeders wide receiver Ken-Yon Rambo, Saskatchewan Roughriders safety James Patrick, Edmonton Eskimos kicker Noel Prefontaine and Calgary running back Jon Cornish were selected as the CFL's top performers for Week 9 of the 2010 season.

Rambo earned Offensive Player of the Week honors after pulling in nine catches for 108 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Calgary's 48-35 win over British Columbia. Rambo, who is in his sixth season with the Stampeders, has scored four touchdowns in four contests this season, helping the club to a league- best 7-1 mark.

Earning the defensive award was Patrick for totaling a career-high three interceptions -- one returned for a 35-yard score -- in the Roughriders' 17-14 setback to Edmonton. He also added three tackles and now leads the CFL with six picks.

Prefontaine took home the special teams award for the week after registering 11 points in Edmonton's victory over Saskatchewan. The kicker booted three field goals, with the longest being 52 yards. His 37-yarder with 41 seconds to play broke a 14-14 tie and give his squad the win. Prefontaine also punted eight times for 370 yards and added a single and an extra point to his totals. It was his second weekly honor of the season.

Rounding out the weekly awards was the Canadian Player of the Week Cornish, who rushed for 70 yards on six carries and had two catches for 34 yards in the Stamps' victory over BC. His 104 total yards were a career-best. It was also Cornish's second league award of the year.
