Comments:

Truman State University (formerly Northeast Missouri State
University) Rugby notched a decisive win over long-time
rival, the Columbia Outlaws.  Truman lead 14-7 at the half,
and used aggressive running and quick and clean
production of loose ball in posting 35 second half points. 
This is the first time theTruman collegiates have defeated
the Outlaws Club side in their 7 year rivalry.

The Bulls  were lead by senior flyhalf Jim Rohr, who
touched down for three tries and was 7 for 7 in his
conversions (2 from the touch line!).  Tries were also
scored by junior center Chris Wright, junior wing Brian
Eichholz, junior lock Jeff Gilsinn, and junior wing Mike
Arnold.

The Bulls' "Killer B's" defeated the Outlaws in the second
game 26-0 to make a sweep of the weekend, and getting
some valuable game time for a number of beginning
players.
