Cowichan’s senior women’s rugby team had a tough match-up last Saturday as they squared off against Westshore, one of the provincial finalists last spring.

Despite getting tries from Jenna Bugden and Laura Russell, Cowichan lost 36-10.

“As a team we were not very happy with this result because we felt we could have played our game better,” captain Sherry Spence said. “We will get a chance to play them one more time after the winter break.”

Fullback Rikki Wylie and hooker Megan Crump were named Cowichan’s players of the game.

The Cowichan women have one more game before the winter break, hosting Capilano this Saturday at 11:30 a.m.
