The Sault Steelers have kept their perfect record in tact with a 27-20 win over Mega City in Toronto on Saturday night.

With the win, the Steelers improved to 6-0 in the Northern Football Conference, finish with a 4-0 regular season record on the road and remained tied with the Oakville Longhorns for first place.

Earlier this season, the Steelers edged Belleville and beat Sudbury and North Bay handily on the road.

The Steelers, who boast the league's second best offense and third best defense based on points scored, finish the regular season with back to back home games. The Steelers entertain the 4-2 Oshawa Hawkeyes next Sunday and the Sudbury Spartans on July 26 at Rocky DiPietro Field.

The Oshawa game was originally scheduled for Saturday but was moved to next Sunday because of a previous booking by the Bandettes at the field. Game time is 1p.m.
