The Bruisers fought their way to a 10-10 tie against DSHA-B on Saturday morning. The Bruiser's two tries came in the first half. Cari, senior lock, powered over the try line at 12 minutes. Within five minutes, the Bruisers scored a second try, this time from the back line when Val, senior inside center, slipped through the DS-B defense to give the Bruisers a 10 point lead.
DS struggled to come-back against the pressing defense of the Bruisers but finally punched through a try in the closing minutes of the first half. As the second half rolled on, the Bruisers gave up a final try to the Dashers for a final score of 10-10.
While the score was tied in the end, the Bruisers played a great game, dominating the Dashers in terms of both possession and territorial advantage. Beth, junior wing and Holly, junior flanker, both made dramatic break away runs. Lauren, junior prop and player of the match, made outstanding tackles all around the field.
Saturday was also the initiation of two rookies, Talia at prop and Rachael at scrum half. Rachael earned our rookie of the match prize taking home the much coveted honor of washing jerseys as a reward for a job well done.
We are off to a great start.
