In 1967 the Crusader coach George Dawson was assisted by CFL 'golden-boy', Terry Golab. At the time, Golab was serving as the school's vice-principal. During his career, Golab played with the Ottawa Rough Riders and the Ottawa Uplands RCAF team. He won the Grey Cup with the Rough Riders in 1940 before serving with the RCAF during the Second World War.
Golab left the school after one year as vice-principal to serve as the General Manager of the Montreal Alouettes (1968-1969).
