A-State Rugby advances to 3-0 with win over LSU

The game was a rematch from Oct. 7 when the Red Wolves beat the Tigers, 45-5, at Curt Huckaby Field.

“We played against a strong wind in the first half which made it hard to clear the ball from our end and win lineouts,” said A-State head coach Shaun Potgieter. “We were also on the bad end of the penalty count in the first half. We were trailing, 10-0, at the half.”

Louisiana State University, ranked 18th nationally, hit first scoring the try and was successful on the conversion to give the home team a 7-0 edge with 20 minutes remaining in the first period.
