Horvath hitting highs for streaking B.C. Lions

Zander Horvath, the B.C. Lions running back, is attracting attention as the Lions are on a three-game winning streak. Horvath has amassed 355 running yards (7.4 yards per carry) and six touchdowns (five rushing, one receiving) over the span of three games. The 27-year-old American, now in his second season with the CFL, will look to add to his impressive totals against the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Sunday.

Horvath acknowledges that his recent performance has been better than before, but he emphasizes the importance of everyone on the field doing their part. The Lions head coach, Buck Pierce, attributes Horvath's growing confidence to increased play count and more touches, allowing him to capitalize on every opportunity. Despite his growing success, Horvath remains humble and aware of the challenges ahead, recognizing the talent and athleticism of his opponents.

Saskatchewan's head coach, Corey Mace, commends Horvath's size, agility, and speed, acknowledging him as a formidable opponent. The Lions and Roughriders will aim to extend their winning streak in an upcoming matchup, with Saskatchewan having the upper hand in rushing offense and defense.
