Tournament Summary:
Our scoring was opened up by backs captain Zachary Lindley, the first two games may not have gone our way but ultimately the boys showed grit and strength.

Our final game was a nail bitter vs UIC, a three try come back led by Kesean "The Magician" Tenard's two tries, and Luke vails last second try+conversion ultimately ended in a hard fought final draw.
