GUELPH, Ontario (AP) — Dan Lefevour scored on a 2-yard run in overtime to help the Hamilton Tiger-Cats beat the Montreal Alouettes 19-16 in overtime Sunday in a rainy and windy CFL East Division semifinal.

LeFevour bulled into the end zone a play after running 11 yards. Lefevour twice converted third-and-inches plays to keep the drive alive. The Alouettes opened overtime with Sean Whyte’s 34-yard field goal on its first possession.

Montreal forced overtime with Whyte’s 32-yard field goal with 5 seconds remaining in regulation. Hamilton took a 13-10 lead on Henry Burris’s 17-yard TD strike to C.J. Gable with 1:04 left.

Hamilton will face defending Grey Cup champion Toronto on Sunday in the East Division final.
