In a thrilling display of skill and strategy, Niagara University Rugby clinched a decisive victory against the University of Rochester at their home ground on September 14, 2024. The match ended with a commanding score of 55-21 in favor of Niagara, marking a significant win for the team this season.

From the opening whistle, Niagara University Rugby showed dominance on the field. John Ridzy notably scored within the first five minutes, setting an aggressive tone for the match. Throughout the game, the scoreboard was lit up by several players, John Rizdy, Jaden Cusprinie and Jake Pedersen contributed two tries each, while Warojen Armenak, Sean Dailor, and Barry Colby also scored, rounding off a truly collective team effort.

In addition to try-scoring, Niagara's performance was bolstered by solid kicking from John Rovente, who successfully made five out of eight kicks, further extending the lead. Vano (Warojen Armenak) had a standout moment with an impressive run down the line and carried the ball right into the try zone to score, showcasing not only his speed but also his tactical awareness.

The match's halftime score stood at 31-14, with Niagara already in a comfortable lead. They continued to build on this in the second half, not giving the University of Rochester, represented by their mascot Rocky the Yellowjacket, much room to maneuver.

As Niagara University Rugby prepares for their next contest against SUNY Geneseo at 2pm on September 21, 2024, they carry forward the momentum from this victory. The match is scheduled to be held at SUNY Geneseo, where Niagara hopes to continue their winning streak. Fans and supporters of Niagara University Rugby are eagerly anticipating another remarkable performance on the field.
