This Sunday, October 19th, the Algonquin Wolves men's rugby team will take the field at home for the final time this regular season, as the program celebrates three graduating seniors, Aung Thein, Paul Schnaithmann, and Tyus Irvine.
All three veterans have been key contributors to the Wolves' resurgence since rejoining the OCAA in 2022. Their dedication over the past three seasons has left a lasting impact on both their teammates and the broader Algonquin rugby community.
The Wolves enter the weekend 7th in the OCAA standings with a 1-3 record and two matches remaining in the regular season. With only the top six teams advancing to the playoffs, every game carries playoff implications. Algonquin currently finds itself in a three-way tie with Seneca and St. Lawrence for the final postseason berth.
Sunday's matchup will be a major test as the Wolves host the 3-1 Georgian Grizzlies, one of the league's top sides. Georgian has been a defensive powerhouse this season, allowing the fewest points against in the OCAA. The Wolves will look to rise to the occasion in front of their home crowd, fighting to keep their playoff hopes alive while sending off their graduating seniors in memorable fashion.
