Saint Mary's Finally Does It
When colleges started playing serious 7s rugby, everyone assumed Saint Mary’s would be good at it; and so the Gaels were, but at the same time, they never won a national title.
They came close - finishing second in 2011 and usually pushing for a spot in the semis or winning the Plate. But Sunday, Saint Mary’s won it all.

Why Life Won
Fans of Saint Mary’s will happily point out that on Saturday, the Gaels won pretty much every stat, except the score; and they might point out that Life didn’t really break the Saint Mary’s line; and Life University might just say “yep, that’s right.”
