Ticas Win!!

TORONTO -- Kevin Glenn threw for 322 yards and a touchdown to lead the Hamilton Tiger-Cats past the Toronto Argonauts 26-17 on Friday night.

Hamilton (7-9) moved into second spot in the East Division standings, two points ahead of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers (6-9), who face the league-best Montreal Alouettes (13-2) on Saturday.

Toronto (3-13) suffered its sixth straight loss before a Rogers Centre gathering of 25,352 to remain firmly entrenched in the conference basement. The Argos are also a dismal 1-7 at home.

Hamilton defended the Ballard Cup after taking the season series. The two teams finished 2-2 but the Ticats had a better point differential.

Hamilton took control of the game by storming out to a 20-0 lead at halftime. Toronto's anemic offence, which is at or near the bottom of most CFL categories, struggled in the opening half but did march 57 yards on seven plays before Kerry Joseph hit Jeff Johnson on a one-yard TD pass to make it 20-7 early in the third.
