Third year standout Richard Lebel (Waterloo/) of Waterloo scored two tries and added three converts (16 points) to lead his Warriors to a 61-0 victory over the RMC Paladins in front of 2,500 plus boisterous fans.  Eight different Warriors scored tries to give the black and gold their first win of the 2010 OUA (Ontario University Athletics) season.

The Warriors jumped out of the gate with three quick tries and never looked back controlling the play from start to finish.  Give credit to the Paladins who fielded a young and inexperienced roster and held their own against a promising Warrior squad.

Lebel who played for Canada at the World University Rugby Sevens Championship displayed his speed and skill with many open field runs.  Lebel will be a tough player to contain on a weekly basis playing for the Warriors.  Rookie Hanser Ulrik of Denmark and 8-man Zach Bentley (Picton/) (Picton, Ont.) each scored two tries of their own.  Capping off the scoring with one try each were flanker Ben Vandenberg (Centreville/) (Centreville, Ont.), Blake Smith (Caledon/) (Caledon, Ont.), Dan Snider (Waterloo/) (Waterloo, Ont.), Caleb Ashley (New Dundee/) (New Dundee, Ont.) and Evan Pitcher (Ajax/) (Ajax, Ont.)

The Warriors (1-0-0) have a short week of preparation as they travel down the 401 for a visit with the Toronto Varsity Blues (0-1-0) on Wednesday, September 15 at 4:15 pm.   RMC (0-1-0) plays host to the McMaster Marauders (1-0-0) at 3:00 pm.
