Gaels earn Bye with 45-19 win against RMC

KINGSTON, Ont. (October 22, 2016) - Six players for Queen's got on the scoresheet in as the tricolour defeated RMC 45-19 in the final game of the regular season on Saturday, and earned a bye through the first round of the OUA playoffs as a result.

The Gaels were in familiar territory for what was supposed to be a road game. After heavy rain made RMC's grass field unplayable, the match was moved to Queen's Nixon Field.

GAME FLOW
For the third game in a row, the tricolour broke the 40 point barrier and more than doubled up their opponents. 

Alex Colborne (London) played a standout game for Queen's for the second week in a row. In addition to kicking five conversions for the Gaels, Colborne also scored one of his team's seven tries on the day. 

In his first game back from playing with Canada 'A' in Uruguay, Kainoa Lloyd (Mississauga, Ont.) was the only man on the field to score two tries. 

Rounding out the Gaels scorers were Matthew Geisler (Toronto), Nicholas DeLallo (Ottawa), and Ben Bethune (West Vancouver, B.C.), who all scored one try each. 

BY THE NUMBERS
10 - Kainoa Lloyd leads the OUA with 10 tries
2 - Queen's has two weeks before its next game thanks to a bye

UP NEXT
The Gaels have next weekend off as they await their opponent for the OUA Semi-Final, which will be hosted on Nixon Field on November 5.
