The St. Thomas University Tommies topped the Mount Allison Mounties 29-7 in men's rugby action Friday night at Scotiabank Park South. 

The Tommies took an early 7-0 lead and added another try for a 12-0 advantage at the break. 

In the second half, the Tommies picked up where they left off, scoring another converted try. The Mounties countered in the next sequence to cut their deficit to 17-7, but the Tommies crossed the try line twice more before the final whistle for their first win of the season. 

Brad Sears, Lyndon Pugh, Zach Lakes, Jonathan Ginnish, and Zach Klassen had one try each, while Cameron Gillis added two conversions. 

The Mounties were led in scoring by Blake Lawrence with one try. Pete Gale chipped in with a conversion.

With the win, the Tommies improve to 1-1 on the season. They are back in action Wednesday October 4 when they host the UNB Ironmen at Scotiabank Park South.
