"Tremendous team defence," said head coach Phil Sullivan. "Particularly in the last 10 minutes of the game. Guelph controlled a lot of possession within our 22, but our defence denied them repeatedly."

Brock led 14-3 at halftime.

David Froome, Devon Ollson and Myles Maloney each scored a try. Steven Commerford added a pair of converts.

Brock's Zach Zorbas was named Man of the Match.

"It was a very gritty match," said Sullivan. "It was a complete effort from the guys."
