Next week we’ll start enjoying a new witty blog-post pair, but for now I want to give a quick recap of our last two games.
Last weekend we went down to Tufts after only a few practices and were unsure of what to expect. The game ended up being a good one, and despite a little bit of frantic play, we held them off to a score of 5-14, with Sarah Kravitz (’16) at flyhalf scoring our try. Everyone agreed that even though we lost, it felt like a victory after last year’s emotional and rough-and-tumble match.
This weekend we faced off against Colby, and our defenses were not quite up to their All-American outside center’s break-aways, and she scored all 4 of their tries. We lost, but it was a beautiful day for rugby, and we even put some brand new rookies out on the field. Our own Stevie Durocher (‘15.5) scored two tries for a final score of 10-31.
Next week we head up to Maine to play at Bates!
