The Milwaukee Barbarians defeated cross-city rivals in the battle of the undefeated on Saturday. Facing 4-0 MRFC, the 5-0 Barbarians scored early and after 4 minutes lead 5-0 with a try from fullback Seay.
MRFC would take the lead for the only time in the match with a converted try at the 17-minute mark.
The Barbarians hit back almost immediately to retake the lead and by halftime had a comfortable 22-12 lead with a try by Klein and a double form Fendryk.
MRFC narrowed the margin early in the second half. But a red card to the MRFC scrumhalf and additional scores by Hergert and a penalty kick from Drobot were too much for the home side to overcome.
