PETERBOROUGH, ON: The Humber Hawks women's rugby 7's team were on the verge of a perfect season after a 16-0 regular season and 1-0 play-off marks, but were dominated 15-0 in the final by the 12-5 Seneca Sting in the 2017 OCAA gold medal game.

With the loss, the Hawks claim the silver medal.

Daniella Grant was the Humber player of the game.

Championship Final
Humber 0 vs Seneca 15

In a match-up between the first and second place teams in regular season play, it was the second place Sting that saw past their 0-2 record (43-7 in points) against Humber, to dominate the play. The score was 10-0 in favour of the Sting at the half, and the Hawks would only see that lead grow. This is the first time in 15's rugby and 7's rugby that Humber has been shut-out.

Christina Branch was selected as Humber's player of the game. Branch and Daniella Grant were honoured as tournament all-stars.
