The KRC thirds faced a large Abbie pack and for the 15 minutes were put to the test.

However a large pack sometimes doesn’t control the game and 5 minutes into the match the backs found an opening and Curtis Everett touched down and converted his try for a 7 point lead.

For the next 15 minutes the play was even and occassionly Abbie pressured but couldn’t convert their pressure into points.

KRC then opened up the Abbie defence scoring 4 tries with Blanchard and Nat Watts scoring singles and Curtis Everett completing his hat trick, Curtis also converted all of the tries to make the half time score KRC 28 – Abbie 0.

The second half was all KRC with Nat Watts completing his hat trick and further tries from Ben Cunningham, Terry Gallant, and Cole Levitt.

Trevor Miyazaki converted 4 of the tries.

Abbie made one break in the half to avoid the whitewash by scoring a converted try.

Final score KRC 61 – Abbie 7.

KRC seconds faced a bit of an unknown Abbie team and at the five minute mark Wes Black scored the opening try with Greg Thomson converting.

After a further 5 minutes Wes again crossed the line with Greg converting to increase the lead to 14 – 0.

KRC scored two more first half tries with Chris Chan and Elliot Elverhoff scoring and Greg Thomson converting both.

Half time score KRC 28 – Abbie 0, the same half time score as in the first men’s match.

The second half was a bit more robust with both Abbie and Kamloops having a man in the sin bin.

This didn’t detour Kamloops and they scored five tries in the second half.
