Marcello Wainwright and his Toronto Arrows teammates ran in seven Try’s to defeat the Seattle Seawolves 52-7 in Major League Rugby play.
Both teams came into the game in need of a win ranked at the bottom in their respective conferences.
Toronto and Seattle lost their first two games of the season before bouncing back with wins.
The Arrows were coming off a 43-16 loss to the expansion Los Angeles Giltinis while the Seawolves, MLR champions in 2018 and '19, beat the Utah Warriors 20-15 last time out.
It was a dominant performance by the Arrows, who had the error-prone Seawolves on the back foot from the get-go.
Joaquin Tuculet, Ben LeSage, Ross Braude, Patrick Parfrey, Jack McRogers, Jason Higgins, and Gaston Cortes scored Try’s for Toronto, which led 24-0 at the half.
Tayler Adams kicked five Conversions and a Penalty. Toronto got two automatic conversions for scoring under the posts.
Mike Shepherd scored Seattle's lone Try. Ben Cima booted a Conversion.
