A starter on both sides of the ball as well as a two-time (1991 and 1992) All-Conference selection, former Jimmie lineman Cory Mantyka ('93) played 13 seasons (1993-2005) in the Canadian Football League with the BC Lions. He was a part of two Grey Cup championship teams (1994 and 2000) and is just one of six Lions to play 200 or more games with the club. In 2003 Mantyka was chosen as a West Division All-Star. He was inducted into the Jimmie Athletic Hall of Fame in 2011, and in 2016, Mantyka was honored with a spot on the BC Lions Football Club Wall of Fame.
