The New Orleans Gold remains undefeated after its 41-31 win over the Seattle Seawolves, the reigning Major League Rugby champions.

Seattle jumped to a 10-3 lead in 27th minute of the first half as the Gold played a man down after Con Foley was given a yellow card.

But on the last play of the first half, the Gold scored on a penalty try that gave New Orleans its first lead of the game, 17-10 at halftime.

After the Gold went up 27-10 in the 47th minute, Seattle scored back to back tries in the 59th and 64th minutes, cutting the NOLA lead to 27-24.

The Gold then fought back and got the ball down to the Seattle try-line, where Taylor Howden fed a quick ball to Tristan Blewett on the wing for a score in the 69th minute.
