The Penn State Women went 1-1 on their last pair of games against Italian opposition. The white team beat the Division 1 team, Monza Rugby, 17-12 with tries from Lisa Henneman, Lauren Barber and the winning try by Maggie Creciun. The Blue team came across a strong Colorno team that included a capped international. The team played hard, but struggled to keep up with the aggression of the team. The score at half-time was 10-7, but a long week of training and games caught up with the team as Colorno pulled away 41-7. Colorno then hosted an amazing social, probably the best we have ever had!
The team has had a great tour. The experience on the Army base in Vicenza was amazing, and we have played 6 games, learnt a lot and come back with no major injuries. The team has today in Milan to sitesee and many of the team are meeting to watch the 6 Nations matches this afternoon. Then at 5.30am the long journey home starts.
