Kas Vidruk

Kas Vidruk was a Grey Cup champion Canadian Football League player.

He played on both offense and defence as a centre, guard, tackle and linebacker.

When only 17 years old, and just out of high school, Vidruk signed with the Winnipeg Blue Bombers in 1942 for $50 (making him perhaps the youngest player and first Lithuanian in the history of the CFL).

In 1949 he was an integral part of the Larks first Grey Cup championship as a replacement for all-star Eagle Keys at centre and a backup at every other line position.

[1] Returning to Winnipeg, he played for 5 more seasons, including the 1953 Grey Cup.
