There are many international players making their mark with rugby's current season. This listing includes seven Bay of Quinte-based products that made the grade.
The first round featured the Loyalist Lancers and the Kingston St. Lawrence Vikings. Also, the Peterborough Fleming Knights, the Oakville Sheridan Bruins and the Peterborough Fleming Knights all visited the pitch. However, there are a few big names that are not on the right side of the draw. Even the Loyalists may not have gotten to the top of the scoreboards in its early stages.
In terms of the most coveted trophy, the top honours go to the man who's name is emblazoned on the top of the Loyalists's shirt. James Lowe, an ex-Leinster stalwart who holds a lot of points, is that man.
There were notable performances by some top regional guns, aside from the above-mentioned winger's tussle. Particularly, the Loyalists’ scout hat is a sight to see. However, it is not one that is for the faint of hearts. While it may not be a home run, it is still an impressive feat for the team.
The Loyalists new entrant did not have many missteps. Among the more memorable were the impressive score by Christine Vandertoorn, and the bruising blowout by Britt Whiting. Amanda Blair's performance was, however, the highlight of the event. Although Blair won the OCAA female Rugby player of week award for her efforts, the winning game was her kicking. Blair took advantage a cold wind to kick three penalty kickes while also winning the player of week award.
The OCAA's women's and men's leagues had plenty of amazing feats. Although it is not unusual to find teams with names like Jackson and Jake, these names might be best kept hidden. "George North" (and "George Davidson") were both injured and had to miss Round 2, while "Geoff Farrar” and "Gabe Davidson” stayed home for victory. The Vikings, as well as the Lancers, each won. The identities of the other contestants are unknown.
But, the OCAA's men's leagues are a different story. Although the reigning champs are in the midst of a losing streak, the Vikings and Lancers have shown the OCAA that they are no longer confined to Kingston. The scores they have accumulated this season show that they have made significant moves. Even though they are just a few rounds into this competition, they have the potential to secure a top four finish and the elusive top place. They will return to the winners' podium if they are able to keep their heads straight when they reach the finals next season.
It's safe to assume the other OCAA male league contenders will be vying for the title.
