HAMILTON, ON – Winning is wonderful, and revenge is sweet.
That's the lesson of Friday night's OUA women's rugby title clash between the former champions, the McMaster Marauders and the new champions, the Guelph Gryphons.
One year after losing the gold medal match at home to the Marauders, the Gryphons were happy to return the favour, winning 24-7 at Ron Joyce Stadium to cap a perfect season in OUA play and claim their first provincial crown since 2012.
"It's so sweet!" head coach Colette McAuley laughed, a gold medal hanging from her neck. "We've got that sweet taste of revenge.
"It was a great game last year as well; this rivalry is good. We're two really good teams that play aggressive, wide, expansive rugby, which is nice to see and beautiful to watch."
The Gryphs were the class of the OUA this year. They outscored their Shiels Division opposition 503-12 during the regular season and were not scored upon in their first two playoff contests, lopsided victories over Waterloo and Queen's.
