The Frances Kelsey Breakers ended league play in senior boys high school rugby with a 42-0 win over Alberni District on Wednesday afternoon.

The Breakers got several of their injured players back and added a couple of new recruits to the lineup, putting the team closer to full strength.

The Breakers will begin the playoffs next Tuesday, hosting Nanaimo District, with the winner going on to play Brentwood College on Thursday to determine the No. 1 seed out of the North Island.

“I am hoping we are the team to play Brentwood and that we can compete for an entire game against a private school that is very well versed in the game of rugby,” coach Craig Schmidt said.
