It was a clean, uncomplicated and low-scoring affair for the Marauders on Friday, as they cleared the table for Thanksgiving with a 15-0 shutout of the RMC Paladins at Back 10 Field.

Richard Ormrod, Mike Waldock and Mike Smith each had tries for the home side, who improved to 4-2 on the season with the victory, good for fourth in the OUA standings. With just two games to play before the onset of the playoffs, McMaster sits squarely in the middle of the postseason picture.

The team returns to Back 10 Field in a week's time, as they take on the Waterloo Warriors on Saturday, October 17.
