After beating Blenheim 20-5 last week, the UCC Lancers girls rugby team showed they are they KCSSAA team to watch defeating CKSS Thursday afternoon 37-5.

UCC was led by a three try performance from Brittany Ellerbeck. Single tries came from Christina Coop, Janet Lowther, Theresa Buis and Meagan Goodhand.

The Chatham-Kent Secondary School Golden Hawks struggled to put together any kind of attack during the game. The Lancers held the Golden Hawks in their own end for much of the game. The experience and skill of the Lancers was evident as UCC stole the ball during several rucks and caused numerous turnovers throughout the game.

Deanna Chandler scored the only try for the CKSS Golden Hawks.

CKSS faces Blenheim next Thursday, followed by a rematch between UCC and CKSS on Monday, April 21.
