Lancers beat Varsity Blues to move up 2-0 By Michal Tellos Sports Editor September 10, 2008 Lancer fans went home happy Saturday afternoon as they saw the boys in blue and gold go up 2-0 in the season thus far.
 Less than a week after demolishing the York Lions in the season opener 40-7, the Lancers ran over the Toronto Varsity Blues at the home opener, 38-14. The Blues had just come off their first win in 49 games.

Sports Editor September 10, 2008 It was a rough start to the season for the Lancers rugby team as they decisively lost their home opener to the Western Mustangs, 62-3.
Head Coach Andrew Ciavaglia stated that the team simply lacked intensity, made mistakes, and was out-performed as a result of them.
“Just basically we got out-rucked I guess you would say at the breakdown,” he said.
“Western was a little quicker than us at the breakdown, we turned over a lot of balls at the ruck, and they turned those mistakes into points,” he added. >>  | | Campus Kiss | | Lancers soccer struggles on the road By Michal Tellos

Each respective team went on the road this past weekend, with the first game being against the McMaster Marauders on Saturday, and their second against Brock Badgers on Sunday.
McMaster proved to be too much to handle for the women’s team, who was handily defeated 5-0. >> |
