The 2nd division team had been more competitive, but had only recorded two wins. This weekend the club came up against a traditional rival in SFU.
The 2nd division set the tone for the day, running out to a 57-12 win.
The 1st division won their first of the season over SFU by a 19-10 score. Nick Hammerschmidt returned from injury to play a big role in the victory.
