The STFX X-Women Rugby squad is hosting the AUS championship game on Wednesday, October 23.
The game pits the X-Women against their long-time rivals, the Acadia Axewomen. The two teams have identical 5-1 records, with their only losses coming against each other. The X-Women had a better point differential, thus earning the right to host the championship game. Acadia defeated UPEI last week to advance to the championship game.
