In 2021, Rowland returned for a third campaign with the Arrows after making 15 appearances (seven starts) since debuting in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season.
The tighthead prop’s career totals include 132 carry metres on 27 carries, 62 tackles (91.2% completion), three tackle breaks, one breakdown steal and one try.
Rowland has accrued six caps for Canada since making his international debut against Wales in July 2021. He also represented Canada at the 2018 World Rugby Under-20 Trophy (as an under-ager) and again throughout the 2019 World Rugby Under-20 Trophy qualifier series.
The forward is a graduate of the Ontario Blues junior men’s provincial program and Rugby Canada’s Pacific Pride national development academy program, and played his grassroots rugby with the Toronto Nomads (Ontario) and the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds (British Columbia).
In November 2021, he signed a new deal with Toronto ahead of the 2022 Major League Rugby season.
