Mar 9, 2022 | 11:58 AM

Toronto Arrows scrum half Andrew Ferguson has been ruled out for the remainder of the Major League Rugby season due to a torn hamstring.

The Canadian international was hurt in the Feb. 6 season opener in Seattle. It had been hoped he could avoid surgery, but an MRI said otherwise in revealing the extent of the injury.

The 29-year-old from Mississauga, Ont., has featured in 30 matches for the Arrows, including 19 starts since 2019, a club record among backs.

The Arrows (2-2-0) have been hit hard by injuries early in the season with as many as 10 players sidelined.
