Bio
Mike Reid was a two-time OQIFC All-Star at centre, earning the conference awards in the 1979 and 1980 seasons. He was a member of the star-studded offensive line which was credited with the team's Atlantic Bowl victory in 1980. An influential teammate, Reid was voted the team's Ken Ferren Award winner for leadership in 1979 and the team's top offensive lineman award winner for 1980.
Reid began his Gee-Gees career (which covered 1978-1980) at linebacker and also played fullback in his first season. Following the team's Dunsmore Cup victory and Atlantic Bowl win in 1980, Reid was drafted 18th overall by Edmonton in the 1981 CFL draft. Originally from Sudbury, Ont., Reid is also a member of the Sudbury Spartan Hall of Fame and was previously inducted into the Gee-Gees Football Hall of Fame as a member of the 1980 team.
