LIONS KEEP WIN STREAK ALIVE WITH THIRD WIN IN A ROW

The York University Lions women's rugby team defeated the Waterloo Warriors 39-5 at CIF Field in Waterloo, Ont., on Sunday afternoon.

The win against the Warriors puts the Lions in second place in the Russell division, trailing only the Trent Excalibur by a hair for top spot.

Tries for the Lions came from prop Bernice Ediagbonya, rookies Esther Sivalingam, and Erin Preston. While Faith Williams and veteran Michela Stratton accounted for two tries each. Full-back Chanelle Lindegaard scored the two-point conversion.

The Lions prevailed despite the Warriors single try from Emily Curwen.

The Lions hope to continue their hot win streak when they host the Laurier Golden Hawks at Alumni Field on Friday Sept. 27th at 7pm.
