KUTZTOWN, Pa. – The Kutztown University women's rugby team kicked off its 2018 Fall 15s season in a strong way, taking down East Stroudsburg University 83-5 last Friday, Sept. 7 at Andre Reed Stadium.

Tamlyn Cowan (Jefferson, N.J./Jefferson Township) led KU with five tries. Aysia Grondahl (New Hope, Pa./New Hope-Solebury) and Selena Garrett (Garnet Valley, Pa./Garnet Valley) also had multiple tries, tallying three and two respectively.
