7.   Monday afternoon, the varsity girls rugby squad stormed into their regular season opener, taking down PJ in convincing fashion. It didn’t take long for the Lions to tickle the try line, with early tries from Selene, Victoria, Emmerson, and Vanny, setting the tone right out of the gate. As the game continued, they didn’t let up. Peyton added to the tally, Maddy B.  powered through for a pair, Eden slipped one over the line, and rookie sensations Natayla and Michelle joined the party with tries of their own. From the tee, it was nothing short of clinical, Heidi, Victoria, and Pheonix were absolute aces, drilling 11 of 13 conversions to keep the pressure firmly on. Defensively, Kiah and Ali A.  stood tall, shutting things down and protecting the line with authority. A Strong performance from start to finish, great work, Lions. Keep that momentum rolling as you head into the Centennial Cup this week.
