Wasps dominated with our forwards over-powering with 5 scrum steals and 6 ruck poaches. Our offensive attack was well executed with over 30 line breaks forcing CH to be on their heels for most of the game. We had several long runs that set up short punch in tries. With great defense, our boys held Copper Hills scoreless.

New players making their Wasps debut: Logan Ogzewalla, John Cone, Jose Saucedo

Beast of the Week = Sam Harvath
