SHERBROOKE, Que – The undefeated Concordia Stingers rolled into Lennoxville looking to keep their perfect season in tact; and they did just that. In the second game of the senior day triple header on Coulter Field the Gaiters men's rugby team fell 57-22.
 
How it Happened:
Concordia opened up the scoring just three minutes into the match with a try from Nicolas Tranche. Shortly after, Josh Bray (Lennoxville, Que./Bishop's College School) was successful with a kick on goal and cut the Stingers lead to just four. As the half continued, the Gaiters struggled to stop the strong assault brought on by Concordia, and were unable to generate much offense for themselves. At the half the Gaiters found themselves down by a score of 31-3. It was not until the 46^th minute that the Bray was able to find the end zone. The Gaiters offense seemed to pick up late in the second half, but by that time it was too little, too late. Bishop's lost the match by a final score of 57-22.
