Cairine Wilson wins third 'AA' girls rugby title in four years

The varsity girls ‘AA’ championship rugby trophy is back where it belongs at Cairine Wilson Secondary School after the Wildcats beat the Ashbury Colts 15-7 on Tuesday to reclaim the title they reliquished to the Colts last year.

This is the Wildcats third ‘AA’ championship in four years. The previously won the title in 2022 and 2023.

In Tuesday’s final, the Wildcats jumped out to a 10-0 first half lead on tries by Olivia Cotton and Amelia Nolan.

The Colts rallied with a converted try early in the second half to narrow the deficit to 10-7, but Nolan’s second major of the game minutes later gave Cairine Wilson some breathing room. Not that they needed it. Thanks to some staunch defending and sure tackling on the part of the Wildcats, the Colts barely made it past midfield the rest of the game.

After the game, Wildcats co-coaches Guy MacDougall and Krista Corneil praised their players for sticking to the game plan for the entire contest.

“We had beaten them two times earlier this season so we knew what we had to do and we knew we couldn’t ease off,” said MacDougall.

The win was especially sweet considering that the team is relatively young with only five Grade 12s on the squad and 15 first year players.

The Wildcats will now travel to Coburg where they will play in the OFSSA provincial championships from June 2-4, and try in finish the season on a high note that started with a pre-season trip to Hawaii in April.
