Men's Rugby
After defeating Toronto 89-5, the schedule will get tougher for the Gaels as they travel to Waterloo to face Wilfrid Laurier on Saturday. Laurier finished third in the OUA East Division in 2018, behind Guelph and Queen's. In the past decade, the Gaels have never lost to Laurier.Â

Women's Rugby
The No. 3 Queen's Gaels (2-0) will face their toughest challenge of the season on the road against the No.4Â Guelph Gryphons (1-0) on Saturday afternoon.Â
After defeating McMaster 100-0 last Saturday, the Gaels will face the two-time defending OUA champion Gryphons. The Gaels haven't won against Guelph since 2014, so look for a motivated Queen's side ready to break that streak. Guelph's only victory came over McMaster in Hamilton that the Gryphons won 49-12. The winner of the match will likely have home-field advantage throughout the OUA playoffs and for the OUA championship.
The Gaels feature the top four point scorers in the OUA with Sophie de Goede leading the way with 48 points while Taylor Black sports nine tries for 45 points.

Rookie Jenna Matsukubo has been a breakout player for the Gaels this season, she leads the OUA in points with seven and is tied for second in the OUA goals (4) and the lead in assists (3) alongside Toronto's Jenny Wolever.
