Report
The Twin Cities Gemini host the Boston Banshees at TCO Stadium to close out the inaugural Women’s Elite Rugby season for both sides!
With the TC Gemini sitting 5th with a 3-6 record and , and the Banshees 4th with a 5-4 record and 26pts, both sides have already been eliminated from Legacy Cup contention. Nevertheless, both sides will want to finished their first WER seasons strong. The Gemini are hoping for a bounce back from the heaviest defeat in WER history, a 75-14 massacre at the hands of the relentless Denver Onyx, while the Banshees are hoping to halt a 2-game skid and enter the off-season with a victory.
It was a low scoring affair, with the Banshees dominant in the first half running out to a 0-15 lead. That scoreline held until half-time and in the 2nd half, the roles were reversed. a Gemini try from Natayah Bauer got them on the board in the 52nd minute to cut the deficit to 10, but the Banshees defence was too solid. The Gemini broke through one last time in the 79th minute through Marissa Hall, but it was too little too late. The Banshees hold on for a 12-15 victory to end the season, and the Gemini walk away with a losing BP.
