Men's rugby lose third straight in Kingston

KINGSTON, Ont. (October 16, 2010) - Dan Moor (Toronto) continued his solid season as his 13 points (five converts, one penalty) led the Queen's Gaels in a 38-17 victory over the Waterloo Warriors.

The Gaels took an early lead on tries by Mason Curtis (Cobourg, Ont.) and Victoria's Mike Van Der Westhuizen (Moor converted after both) to go up 14-0.

Waterloo brought the game back within reach with a strong stretch in the first half. The Warriors put up a try and convert of their own to come within seven points of the Gaels. Queen's responded though, as their third try and convert of the half left them with 21 points before a Moor penalty goal gave them 24 for the frame.

Waterloo would add another try and convert before halftime, as the teams went into the break with Queen's ahead 24-14.

Queen's shut the door in the second half however as they only allowed three points on a penalty from Waterloo's Richard Lebel (Waterloo). The Gaels would add two more tries and Moor put up two more converts to seal the game for the 38-17 final.

Queen's received tries from Curtis, Van Der Westhuizen, Shane Baddeley (Peterborough, Ont.) , Brandon McGovern (Ottawa), and Henry McQueen (Vancouver) who scored the Gaels final try of the game.

The Gaels will be in action this Wednesday as they take on the RMC Paladins on Kingston Field. Start time is set for 3:00 pm.
