CHARLESTON, S.C. – Former Buccaneer wide receiver Bryant Burch signed a multi-year contract with the Calgary Stampeders, a member of the Canadian Football League.

In Calgary, Burch will see much of the same action as he saw at CSU, playing wide receiver and also returning kicks and punts.

Burch was a two-sport star at CSU, catching 24 passes for 452 yards in 2006. Burch also ran track at CSU, making it to the finals in the 100m dash at the Big South Indoor Championships. He was the leading kick off returner, bringing back 16 kicks for 292 yards with a season-long 42 yarder against VMI.

Burch’s first touchdown reception came in 2005 against North Greenville. He tallied more than 100 yards against Savannah State in 2006, doing so with just three catches. He followed that performance up with 123 yards on three catches against Gardner-Webb. In that game, Burch caught a short pass, broke a tackle and sprinted 81 yards for the touchdown.

The Calgary Stampeders are coming of a 10-8 regular season record and a berth in the playoffs.

Former CSU cornerback Dounia Whitehouse also spent some time in the CFL playing with the Grey Cup Champion Edmonton Eskimos.
