Match Report for Boston (1st) vs. Albany Knickerbockers (1st) 28 October 2017 Location: Harvard athletic facility behind the football stadium

SCORE Boston: 34    Albany Knickerbockers: 27

Evening game played under lights on the turf at Harvard. Cool evening with a stiff breeze that was problematic for lineouts and kicks. Competitive, close game with tries scored by both teams throughout the game. Discipline was mixed and needed discussion with both captains and two yellow cards to Boston for repeated infringements by players and teams. Both teams talked too much. Both teams had off side issues when under pressure in the red zone. Issues around the tackle came and went but included not releasing and side entry.
