MRC-PPU football team
Earlier this month the MRC-PPU football team participated for the first time in the College of Life Sciences football tournament, playing three matches:
Game 1 against the Division of Molecular Microbiology (MMB) - who just happen to be last year's champions - resulted in a 1-1 draw, Game 2 against the Division of Biochemistry & Drug Discovery (BCDD) saw the opposition win 3-2, and finally Game 3 against the Division of Cell & Developmental Biology (CDB) resulted in a disappointing 4-0 loss. However, this disappointment was lessened when CDB went on to take first place overall in the tournament.
Team Captain Bob Gourlay had two assists and one goal, and Roy Zhang scored two goals. Despite the results the team was very happy with their performance, thoroughly enjoyed all their games, and are already looking forward to next year.
