Dillon Parry got the Warriors started with a try at the 10:23 mark of the first half. Oly’s Jack Anderson tied things with a try just before halftime.
“On a scale of one to 10, I would grade this game about a seven,” said Snow Canyon coach Mike Puriri. “We made some mistakes. The second half (we) got a little bit better.”
Tommy Paulsen’s try with 18:35 left in the game gave Olympus a 10-5 lead. Both teams missed their first conversion attempts.
Caden Boren’s try with 13:37 remaining enabled the Warriors to tie the game at 10-10 and Parry’s conversion gave them the lead at 12-10.
“We had some good reserves going in the second half,” Puriri said. “Guys like Caden Boren lifted the rest of the team.”
Casey Jacobsen scored and Parry added the conversion kick with 11:03 left and Parry added a try and conversion with 5:06 to complete the scoring.
“That was one of the first games we played where they think they’re fit,” Puriri said of the Warriors. “Olympus played really good rugby. It was a little scary out there.”
