scoring a go-ahead try with time running out in
the second half to secure a 16-14 victory over
hosts Washington RFC. NYAC led 6-3 at halftime,
but Washington took the lead on an unconverted
Mike Spencer try with seven minutes elapsed, then
extended that margin to 11-3 on a penalty kick by
Andrew Osborne at the 15-minute mark. After a
yellow card left Washington a man down, NYAC?s
Aidan Mara darted in for a try to even the score
at 11-11. Washington regained the lead 14-11 with
six minutes left in the game on a Simon Boyer

ticking down and saw their patience rewarded with
a game-winning try in the corner. |
