In the finals, Bayonne was no match for their hosts from Princeton Athletic Club, dominating the match from the opening whistle and soundly defeating PAC 33-12, securing Bayonne’s 2nd straight New Jersey 7’s Championship.Tournament MVP Chris Arnold led a dynamic backline which featured Mike “Amish” Vogt and Spencer “I’m no Lash-dodger” Healy and was unstoppable throughout the day. Rhys Priestman and Ben Buckley controlled the play in the forwards. Bayonne used 12 players throughout the tourney, making regular substitutions and allowing themselves to remain fresh throughout the day. Their fitness was clearly evident in the semi-final and final matches where they were able to wear down their opponents with pace and constant defensive pressure.
