Culbreath selected in sixth round of CFL Draft by Stampeders
TORONTO - Fourth-year offensive lineman Oamo Culbreath was the lone UBC Thunderbird selected in the 2010 CFL Draft on Sunday, going 46th overall to the Calgary Stampeders.

The 6-foot-5, 300-pound Kingston, ON native, who was taken with the second to last pick in this year's draft, was ranked 10th in offensive guards by TSN's Duane Ford in his pre-selection rankings.

Culbreath has started in a variety of roles along the offensive line for the T-Birds over the past three years, including long stretches at centre following a season-ending injury to UBC starter Dan Mendes at the beginning of the 2008 season.

Forde described Culbreath as a, "smart three-year starter [who] has good technique and size but needs to find consistency."

Culbreath is eligible to return to UBC for one more CIS season.

For complete results of the draft, see the TSN's CFL Draft Tracker.
