BAYSIDE'S WOMEN UPSET LOMAS 

October 26, 2002

by Frank Ellestad

Bayside Sharks 12 Meralomas 5 - Connaught Park

The bayside women pulled a huge upset in women's first division rugby on Saturday by beating the previously undefeated Meralomas 12-5. That improves our record to 3-2 

The start of the game was an indication of things to come, with bayside exerting extreme pressure on defense. and an expansive and unrelenting attack on offense. We shocked the much older and experienced meraloma team with our fitness and our commitment to the tackle. 

The coaching staff feels that this may be one of the best played games for our squad in quite sometime, and we hope that this will be a stepping stone to having a productive second half of the season.

Scorers: Jenna Heska, Jill Eadon - 1 try each, Kristine Hanssman - 1 convert

Player of the Match:  Christina Hastie

Next Game: At home vs. the Ex-Brits Saturday Nov. 2
