SASKATOON — For Trevor Harris, the first calls on Sunday didn’t have anything to do with formations, strategy and the like.

He phoned his wife (Kalie) and his mom (Suzanne) on Mother’s Day — which coincided with Day 1 of the Saskatchewan Roughriders’ main training camp.

“I showed my mom the field,” Harris said at Griffiths Stadium. “She has seen Mosaic Stadium and Winnipeg’s stadium and Ottawa’s stadium. She said, ‘Wow … it’s so cool.’ She never loses that lustre and excitement for life.

“A shout-out to all the mothers out there — my wife, my wife’s mom (Marie Denton), my sisters and all the people who are close.

“My wife always says that she makes a house a home, and she absolutely does. We’re really grateful for all the mothers out there.”

Harris, like his dad, is a father of four. Tom and Suzanne Harris of Waldo, Ohio are the proud parents of Trevor, Cody, Chantress and Autumn. Trevor and Kalie Harris have three sons (T.J., Trace and Tripp) and a daughter (Livian).

Head Coach Corey Mace and his wife, Petra, have a daughter (Maleena) and a son (Micah).

“Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there,” Corey Mace said to begin his media session on Sunday at Coors Light Training Camp.

“We love you. We appreciate you.”

WOODS WORK

Josh Woods, a first-year Roughrider, has already performed well at Mosaic Stadium.

He was the B.C. Lions’ starting strong-side linebacker against Saskatchewan in the 2025 Western Final — a game the home side won 24-21 in down-to-the-wire fashion.

Woods had six defensive tackles and one pass knockdown in that Nov. 8 nailbiter at Mosaic Stadium.

“That was a tough game, but I’m so blessed and excited to be here and to work with this group and be on this side of it,” said Woods, who signed with Saskatchewan as a free agent in February.

“Sask was the best team in the league last year and we knew that. It was a dogfight every time we saw each other, so you knew you had to bring it.”

The 6-foot-2, 234-pounder had 62 defensive tackles and one sack in 14 regular-season games with B.C. last season. Dating back to 2021, he played in 55 games with the Lions.

He already feels comfortable in his second CFL home.

“When you get to know people, you want to play better for them,” Woods said.

“I’ve never been a stat guy. The only stats I care about are wins and losses. I’ll do whatever I can to help us win.

“I want to get a Grey Cup. That’s what I’m chasing.”

WIEBE WOWS ’EM

Sunday’s most picturesque play was a 40-yard touchdown pass from Harris to University of Saskatchewan Huskies grad Daniel Wiebe, who scored on a deep corner route.

“I thought he was awesome last year,” Harris said of the Roughriders’ eighth-round pick in the 2025 CFL Canadian Draft. “Then he went back to (U Sports) and won every award you could possibly win.

“He’s a stud. I really love him. If you tell him to do something, it’s, ’10-4,’ and he does it. He’ll ask the right questions.

“I think he’s got a bright future. I couldn’t be more excited for a guy like that. He’s not here because he’s from Saskatchewan. He’s a beast.”

Wiebe was named the top player in Canada West last year after catching 78 passes for 1,257 yards and 13 touchdowns.

SUNDAY’S STANDOUTS

• Wiebe caught the first two passes thrown by Harris in 12-on-12 drills.

• Marcus Sayles had an interception in a skeleton drill and nearly added a pick-six in 12-on-12. Jaxon Ford also  made an interception in the skeleton drill.

• Anderson Jr. and A.J. Ouellette carried the ball five times. Darrell Henderson Jr. was handed the football twice. Saskatoon Hilltops star Corbin Ebbin had Sunday’s other carry.
