The Halton Hawks Senior Girls rugby team hosted the Cardston Cougars at a somewhat damp Sproule Field on Monday evening, May 28.

The Hawks were a bit tense at first according to Coach Randy Whitehead, and had of a number of knock ons (a foul created by knocking the ball forward while trying to catch it), but they were able to fight through it and maintain pressure on the Cougars.  The Hawks won the game 17-10.  Hawks' Jordan Plummer, Catherine DeCock, and Emma Lowry each scored a try and Alyssa Barbero added a convert.

The Senior Hawks will travel to Lethbridge this Wednesday, May 30 to take on Winston Churchill in a semi-final game.

Thanks again to Coach Randy Whitehead for providing scores and other information.
