Gerry Organ
Gerry Organ played 12 seasons with the Ottawa Rough Riders from 1971 to 1983 (he didn't play in 1978). Organ won four East scoring titles, including his first three years in 1971 through 1973. Organ's only East All-Star honour, however, came in 1982 when he hit on 28 of 33 field goal attempts for a career high 84.8% success rate. While he was one of the first generation of speciality kickers in the CFL, Organ did see some action as a backup receiverwith 14 career receptions, including two for touchdowns.
