Many players are making their mark in rugby, with the current season in full swing. This listing includes seven Bay of Quinte-based products that made the grade.
The first round of championship saw the Loyalist Lancers (Kingston St. Lawrence Vikings), the Peterborough Fleming Knights (Peterborough Fleming Knights) and the Oakville Sheridan Bruins all grace the pitch. But there are some big names who aren't on the winning side of this draw. Even the Loyalists can't seem to make it past the first stages of the game.
Top honours in terms of most coveted trophy go to the Loyalists' shirt's top whose name is engraved. James Lowe, an ex-Leinster stalwart who holds a lot of points, is that man.
Other than a fight with the winger, there was a few noteworthy performances by the region's top guns. Particularly, the Loyalists scout cap was something to see, although it may not be one for the faint of heart. Although it's not a home run it is still a remarkable feat for the team.
The Loyalists new entrant did not have many missteps. The impressive score of Christine Vandertoorn and Britt Whiting's bruising blowout were two of the highlights. Amanda Blair's performance was, however, the highlight of the event. Although she was the recipient of the OCAA female rugby player of the week award, it was the kicking game that won the day. Taking advantage of a brisk icy wind, Blair booted three penalty kicks, while also claiming the aforementioned player of the week award.
There was certainly no shortage of impressive feats to be found in the OCAA's men's and women's leagues. Although it is not unusual for teams to be named "Jackson", or "Jake", they may be best left behind. "George North" (and "George Davidson") were both injured and had to miss Round 2, while "Geoff Farrar” and "Gabe Davidson” stayed home for victory. The Vikings, as well as the Lancers, each won. Names of other contestants remain a mystery.
But, the OCAA's men's leagues are a different story. Despite the current champs being in the midst a losing streak they have shown the OCAA by showing the Lancers as well as the Vikings that they are not confined to Kingston. They've made some significant moves, as evidenced by the scores they've racked up this season. Considering they're only a few rounds into the competition, they have the chance to nab a top-four finish and claim the elusive top spot. And if they can keep their heads, they'll be back in the winners' circle by the time they make it to the finals next year.
It's also safe to assume that the other OCAA men's league contenders will be making a run at the title.
