Irish suffocating defense turns Washington over. Champaign rugby and a defender not rolling away after a decent sting run by 8man Sean Connolly results in a try for the good guys. Conversion is wide. 12-7 15min in.

Huge hit by shaggy Jay and the boys respond with hit after hit until washing decides they need a break and just throw it into touch.
