Wayne Shaw (a)

A native Saskatchewan boy, Wayne Shaw played junior football for the highly successfull Saskatoon Hilltops.  Shaw graduated to the Roughriders in 1961 and spent his entire twelve year career (1961-72) in green and white.

Shaw won six West All-Star honours (1963, 1964, 1966, 1967, 1969 and 1971) as well as one CFL All-Star (1967) at linebacker. Perhaps more important than the individual honours though is that Saskatchewan fans will always remember him as a big part of the 1966 Grey Cup victory, the first in franchise history.

In his career, Shaw recorded 21 interceptions and 20 fumble recoveries. In 1963, Shaw had a career high of 6 fumbler recoveries which led the West. Shaw also tied for the West lead with 3 fumble recoveries the next year in 1964. Shaw had one career touchdown on an interception return in 1966.
