Philadelphia, Pa —\u00a0The La Salle Women’s Rugby team won both games of a 7’s match with Temple (41-5, 50-0) to capture the first two victories in program history Sunday morning at Hank DeVincent Field.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Explorers saw six players score multiple tries throughout both matches, with freshmen Quinn Franck<\/a> and Maeve Delaney<\/a> scoring three tries each to lead the balanced scoring effort for La Salle.\u00a0Fellow classmates Claire Meislahn<\/a>, Isabella Titus<\/a>, Jocelyn Widrig<\/a>, and Hadley Edwards<\/a> each scored two tries apiece.<\/p>\n

Taylor Major<\/a> and Mallory Edwards added tries to round out te scoring for La Salle, with Major adding four conversions in the first match.\u00a0<\/p>\n

La Salle raced out to a 41-0 lead in the first match before Temple put in a try as time expired. The Explorers then scored 50 unanswered on 10 tries in the second match.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“I’m very impressed with the girls’ ability to adapt,” said head coach Kelsie McDowell. “They came in prepared for a 15s game, and adapted on the fly to smash two 7’s games.”<\/p>\n

La Salle is back in action next weekend, when the Explorers travel to Connecticut to take on Quinnipiac on Saturday.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Story Links Philadelphia, Pa —\u00a0The La Salle Women’s Rugby team won both games of a 7’s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":176067,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[567],"tags":[64,63,760,85],"class_list":["post-176066","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-rugby","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-rugby","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176066","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=176066"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/176066\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/176067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=176066"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=176066"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=176066"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
