LANG NAMED GUEST COACH DURING EDMONTON ESKIMOS TRAINING CAMP
EDMONTON - The Edmonton Eskimos are pleased to welcome back Wayne "Ace" Powell and Ross Cammalleri as guest coaches for their 2010 training camp. Joining Powell and Cammalleri are former CFL quarterback Ted White, Laval offensive coordinator Marco Iedaluca and former Eskimo and current head coach of the University of Guelph Gryphons Stu Lang.
Cammalleri assisted with the defence during the 2009 Eskimos training camp. He makes his return to Edmonton to help out again with the defence. Ross currently oversees the special teams for Cegep Andre Grasset College in Quebec. The Quebec native is cousins with current Montreal Canadian forward Mike Cammalleri.
Iedaluca joined the Laval Rouge et Or in January of this year. He brings 15 years of coaching experience to the 2010 Eskimos training camp. Most recently he was the running backs coach for the Team Canada juniors in a game against the United States on Jan. 30 as part of the NFL Pro Bowl. Iedaluca has been on the coaching staff in various offensive positions of each junior edition of Team Canada since it's inception in 2000. The former St. Leonard Cougars (CJFL) quarterback served as the offensive coordinator for the Cougars from 1998 to 2008.
Five-time Grey Cup champion Lang will be assisting with the receivers for the 2010 Eskimos training camp. The Queen's graduate entered the CFL playing ranks in 1974 with the Edmonton Eskimos. He was the Eskimo's nomination for rookie of the year at the conclusion of his inaugural season. The Ontario native went on to enjoy an eight-year career in green and gold seeing action in six Grey Cup games and walking away with five championship rings. Last year, Lang joined the University of Guelph Gryphons as the receivers coach. He was recently promoted to head coach as former coach Kyle Walters stepped down to become the special teams coach with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
Powell will be returning to the Eskimos training camp for the second consecutive season to assist with the defensive duties. Powell brings 30 years of experience at the CIS level with Ottawa and Carleton and in the junior ranks as head coach of the Ottawa Sooners.
White was the back-up quarterback for three seasons for the Montreal Alouettes (2002-2005) working under the tutelage of current Eskimos offensive coordinator Kevin Strasser. The Howard University graduate also spent time with the Barcelona Dragons and Frankfurt Galaxy of the NFL Europe league. The Louisiana native had an impressive collegiate career and left Howard University holding school and conference records for most passing yards (9,713) and most touchdown passes (92) as well as school records for pass completions (638) and attempts (1,169). White will be assisting with the quarterbacks for the 2010 Eskimos training camp.
