Yankees Win Again!!!
Yankees 32 Worcester 10
The Connecticut Yankees have been working hard to improve this season, and
now it is beginning to show on the pitch. After shutting out The Village
Lions last weekend at home the Yankees took their show on the road to
Worcester this past weekend. The Yankees came out of the gate strong with
each member demonstrating a high level of fitness and aggression against a
surprised looking Worcester side.
The Yankees went straight after Worcester running the ball straight at
them, breaking tackle after tackle. Matt, a Yankee new comer, quickly made a
name for himself as he buried would be tacklers on his way down the pitch.
He showed up ready to play, and the Yankees look forward to playing with
Matt in the future.
Another Yankee newcomer, Tim G, displayed excellent ball skills, and
composure in the tackle. Tim was awarded with a try in his first game as a
Yankee! Other notable players were Percy and Giles in the back line. These
two continue to bewilder defenders with their combination of quickness and
power. While in the forwards Captain Eric Shrauger led the way demonstrating
his fitness until the final whistle. Doug also demonstrated more confidence
at scrum half, showing that he can take over a game, and direct the action
on the field.
The Yankees will be participating in the Newport tournament this coming
weekend. They are hopeful that their winning ways will continue as they
prepare for next fall.
