Men's rugby schedule
Â
The Gaels men's rugby team continues their regular season schedule this Sunday at the Guelph Gryphons after starting the regular season last weekend with a win at the Waterloo Warriors. The 2015 season resulted in another consecutive OUA Championship after a 7-1 regular season record.
Â
Returning to Queen's and looking to continue the Gaels winning legacy this year are the OUA MVP
Lucas Rumball (Toronto) and
Kainoa Lloyd (Mississauga, Ont.), who has been touring with the Canada 'A' team this summer. Beyond these two standouts, the tricolour lineup has a wealth of OUA Champions in search of more glory.
Â
With 22 Turner Trophy wins, the Gaels surpassed Toronto last season for most titles won in OUA history. A fifth championship in as many years would only increase the gap.
