Mitchell Rothman ran in three tries and rookie Frederico Cisneros Sanchez made five conversions to lead the Western Mustangs over the Waterloo Warriors 60-15 at Alumni Field on Saturday. With the win, the Mustangs improve to 3-1 on the season, while the Warriors fall to 0-4.
 
First to put points on the scoreboard was Western's Justin Chan, followed by a successful conversion kick from Cisneros four minutes into the game. Waterloo followed up at the ten minute mark with a try from Tristan Gingras-Hill (Mississauga) only to see Western counter with an additional three tries and two conversions, bringing the halftime score to 26-5 for the Mustangs.
 
Second-year Rothman started the second half with a bang for the Mustangs scoring his third try of the game 43 seconds after the whistle. The purple and white continued to push through the Warrior's defensive line with strong runs and quick passes, adding an additional 34 points to the board. Waterloo refocused late in the second half allowing Andrew MacCulloch (Mississauga), and Michael Baumung (Cambridge) to each score a try for the Warriors bringing the final score to 60-15.
 
Rothman led the scoreboard, contributing 15 points for the Mustangs. Also standing out was Cisneros, from Nova Scotia, who contributed 10 points throughout the game.
 
The Warriors next game will be on the road next Saturday at 7pm against the struggling Toronto Varsity Blues.
