Dallas Jackals Win for the First Time in Franchise History
April 3, 2023 - Major League Rugby (MLR)
Dallas Jackals News Release
The Dallas Jackals bookended their first franchise victory to defeat the Toronto Arrows at Choctaw Stadium on College Night presented by Coca-Cola.
Sam Golla and Dewald Kotze registered Dallas' tries. Golla, the first selection in the 2023 MLR Collegiate Draft, juked a lone Toronto defender to register his first try of the season midway through the second half. With no one else around him, he made sure the try was worth seven as he touched down in the center of the try zone.
Trailing by four, Kotze successfully dove into the try zone to regain the lead for Dallas with nearly 20 minutes left in regulation.
The Pack held on late in front of a roaring crowd eager to see their team pick up that elusive first win.
NEXT GAME: Dallas Jackals visit Houston Sabercats on Apr. 15th.
