BC Rugby Match Updates – February 15th 2024
Seattle Seawolves Beat Pacific Pride 79-7: Canada Selects Match on Wednesday
A top MLR team vs an Academy team, it’s a good reminder of the difference in levels. The score was 50-0 at the half so the Pride can be credited with adapting a bit and making the second half 29-7. The Pride are always a level below their top form when the spring season begins and they bring in new players to replace those picked up by MLR or graduating after the fall season. Last season in February after the break they were beaten 48-10 by UBC.
