WOLFVILLE, N.S. – Since he began as the head coach of Acadia's women's rugby team, head coach Matt Durant has not missed an AUS championship. Ten consecutive years the Axewomen have been finalists and in 2015, they finally captured their first AUS championship.

With forty-four AUS All-Stars in ten seasons, it wasn't easy to choose a first and second all-decade teams to celebrate a great period of Axewomen rugby.

"I've been given the opportunity to bring in some fantastic players from across the Maritimes and across that Canada and we wanted to recognize what we thought were some of the strongest players who have come through our program over the last a decade," said Durant.

"It was an incredibly difficult chore. We've had so many really talented players playing at so many different positions, it was it was difficult for us to come to terms with who those 30 players are going to be on a first and second teams," added Durant.

Of the thirty players, three were named AUS Most Valuable Players including recent 2019 MVP Monique Coffey, 2018 MVP Laura Pfliederer and 2013 MVP Emilie Chiasson.
