Stamps' Dave Dickenson tabbed Coach of the Year

Calgary's rookie head coach Dave Dickenson was named CFL Coach of the Year on Thursday, winning over Ottawa RedBlacks head man Rick Campbell.

Dickenson coached the Stampeders to a 15-2-1 record, the second most wins in CFL history and most wins by a first-year head coach.

Calgary had the league's highest-scoring offence, while also possessing the No. 1 defence.

In his first season at the helm, Dickenson also guided the Stamps back to the Grey Cup, after winning in 2014 as Calgary's offensive coordinator.
