Stanford 5, Alumni 30

On Sunday the annual Alumni game was held at Stueber Stadium. Due to the upcoming Thanksgiving break, the teams played 7 vs. 7, with rookies showing a strong force on Stanford's side. Even with the addition of two assistant coaches on the team, the Alumni won the game 30-5, with the majority of the Alumni tries scored by Carey Myslewski. Carey has always been very good at rugby- it is unlikely that she will ever not be good. Regardless of the score, both teams had a ton of fun. Also having fun was Jenn Fuller, who is training to become a referee and reffed her first match at this game. The Alumni enjoyed returning to their stomping ground, and it was a great experience for the rookies to see and participate in a higher level of rugby. Over the Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks, the Stanford Women's Rugby Team will be lifting and conditioning in preparation for their upcoming season, which kicks off with the Stanford Invitational Tournament held at Stueber Stadium on January 17-18. Hope to see you all there!
