Former Stampeder memorialized at Stamps game

Friends and family of Bruce Covernton held a barbeque in the parking lot of McMahon Stadium on Saturday to honour his legacy. Covernton was a tackle for the Stampeders and was selected first overall in the 1992 college draft. He was voted the west's top rookie that year, and top offensive lineman in 1993. He was part of the Grey Cup championship teams in 1992 and 1998. Now there is a new memorial fund started in his name. “We’re already over $20,000 raised,” said Rob Cote, orga
