MDX Wins Local Darby
We were worried that a surge of emotions would negatively impact the character of our team. We shouldn't have worried. Everyone on team played well, and we rewarded with first half unconverted tries by Everett Lee and Eric Ishekwene. Javonte Collick put in a huge shift on defense that kept the Roosters scoreless.
Halftime: Maryland Exiles 10 -- Roosters 0
Rooster's Rally
A team with the talent of the Roosters was not going to go away easily. To their credit, they fought back hard and score two unconverted tries themselves. However, MDX had the answer and closed this game out with a converted try by Mwewa Mwape (Converted by TK Sullivan) and this game was a wrap. And while the coaching staff was pleased with the improvement in the teams performance, we were extremely impressed with the character, class and discipline of the team in this game.
Final: Maryland Exiles 17 -- Roosters 10
