GAELS OPEN TURNER TITLE DEFENCE WITH DECISIVE 74-6 WIN OVER WATERLOO
By Queen’s Sports Information
It may have been move-in day for thousands of Queen's students in Kingston today but the men's rugby team was also in full movement to the tune of a 74-6 decision over Waterloo to open the OUA season.
GAME FLOW
The match started off slow for Queen's in the early minutes after the two teams traded drop goals for a 3-3 score through to the 15-minute mark.
From there Queen's turned on the offence with 33 of the next 36 points to take a commanding 36-6 lead at halftime.
The second half saw much of the same for the Tricolour as they were able to hold the Warriors off the scoresheet in the final 40 minutes. Meanwhile, the Gaels piled up another 38 points en route to a 74-6 final.
TURNER TITLE DEFENCE
The Queen's Gaels men's rugby team are defending champions of the OUA and they sent a message to the OUA with a decisive win that it will take a lot to knock-down these champions.
RUNNING WILD
Queen's offensively saw a number of long runs and evasions as a result of strong passing. Nicholas DeLallo turned in a three-try performance including one that saw him dash the final 15m for a score.
