Wake Forest Rugby Alumni defeated the current Wake Forest team 38-0, in a 60 minute match. Alumni tries were scored by Pat Kane, Greg Wagner, Hien Dinh Nguyen, Evan Woods, Dave Buckingham, and Scott Adams. Kane converted 4 of the 6 tries. Alumni who did not make the scoresheet, but who played fantastic rugby, were Justin Edwards, Warren Pierce, Adam Blincoe, Rusty Hedrick, Acilleas Patounas, and Jordan and Joshua Weiss. The alumni side was rounded out by soon-to-be alumni Owen Field, Dinesh Kirpalani, and Dave Taveira.
After the pasting by the more experienced alumni side, Wake regrouped and ran all over UNC-Greensboro, winning 43-7. A mixed first and second side scored seven tries, with freshman fullback Drew Chadwick notching a hat-trick in only his second ever game. Tries were also scored by freshman prop Matt Storck, senior flyhalf Tyler Eure, senior flanker Owen Field, and sophomore center Michael Daniels. Wake was able to put together a much more complete performance this week than last week against Guilford. The return of inside center Mike Wills solidified the backline, while the forwards were bolstered by the return of hooker Mike Duffy.
Wake will next be in action at East Carolina next Saturday night.
