Quantico, VA
On a windy day at the Quantico Marine Base, Virginia won the first of its two games with a convincing 20-5 victory over the hosting Quantico Hooligans. The Virginia men had the wind at their back in the first half, and they quickly capitalized on their advantage. In the 2nd minute, Gary Larimer scored a try on a counter-attack of a Quantico clearance attempt. James Fealey's conversion gave Virginia an early 7-0 lead. Fealey extended the lead to 10-0 in the 9th minute with a 26 meter penalty.
Fly half Evan Davis caught both teams off guard in the 21st minute with a successful drop goal attempt from 20 meters out to put Virginia up 13-0. A few minutes before half-time, however, Quantico got on the board with a try scored after a Virginia dropped ball. The conversion attempt into the strong head wind was, predictably, unsuccessful and left the half-time score at 13-5.
Virginia's offense stagnated in the second half, with Quantico repeatedly taking advantage of the wind to send deep kicks into Virginia's defensive half. Despite the constant pressure, Virginia's defense held strong and did not allow Quantico any points in the half. In the 58th minute, Virginia was finally able to take advantage of a Quantico kick, with wing Ken Duvall scoring a try on a long counter-attack. Fealey's conversion brought the final score of the game to 20-5.
