The Alouettes were up for 5 of the 6 Gibson Finest player awards tonight at the Telus Convention Centre in Calgary. The Als were able to muster up a pair of repeat winners and one first timer.

Ben Cahoon was beat out on Top Canadian by Ricky Foley and Anwar Stewart was edged by Saskatchewan Defensive Lineman John chick for top defensive player of the year.

In a tight race Ricky Foley edged Ben Cahoon 31-24 and Anwar Stewart lost 34-21.

Other Awards handed out on the night:

The Commissioner’s Award went to Wally Buono who became the CFL all-time leader in coaching wins this season.
