It’s the Battle of the B’s as the Bay Breakers host the Boston Banshees in Lodi, CA during Round 8 of the inaugural season of Women’s Elite Rugby!

The travelling Boston Banshees are looking to snap a 2-game skid that includes a hard fought 7-25 defeat to the powerhouse Denver Onyx last week, while the Bay Breakers are back home after 3 games on the road, and looking to build on their big win over the Tempest in Round 7. This marks the first meeting between these two sides in Women’s Elite Rugby history.

The Gemini travel to California to face the Bay Breakers in Lodi, CA during the 3rd Round of WER’s inaugural season. The Breakers are still looking for their first win in just their 2nd game, while the Gemini sit 4th and are looking to build on a 1-1 record. These teams have never met before in the past.

With a convincing 66-12 victory for the home side, the Bay Breakers set a new WER record for the most points by a side as their 66pts surpasses the 63pts scored by the Denver Onyx last week. The winning margin of 54pts is a new Breakers record, falling just short of the WER record of 56, also set by the Denver Onyx in Rd 2.

Breakers fullback Bulou Mataitoga set a new WER record in this game, scoring 4 of her teams’ 10 tries.
