Sydney University Rugby Club won every game in both grade and colts on Saturday June 28th, with every team now in contention for the finals series.

The successful day also coincided with the annual Junior’s Services Day which welcomed a plethora of police and fire personnel among crowds at University Oval No.1.

First Grade maintained back to back victories defeating West Harbour Pirates 41-31, catapulting us back into 2nd position on the Club Championship – a mere 15 points behind Randwick – with 4 rounds to go. 

An early penalty saw the Pirates put first points on the board but as University warmed up they began to more freely use the ball and soon afterwards notched two impressive tries scored by Mitchell Whiteley.

The bonus point victory builds valuable momentum for the coming weeks against some strong teams with three home games on the way.
