Quotes:
"Many small successes today led us to the win on Senior Day, it was a total team effort. I am proud of the outcome but most importantly I am proud of how we care about each other as individuals and not just rugby players. Those connections lead to plays like Aly's crosskick to Caitlyn who chased it down for a try. We look forward to the next few weeks where we can continue to build creativity off of our offensive system." - Head Coach
