SHERBROOKE, Que. – Augustus Hill, an exchange student from England, scored nine points with a try and two conversions as the visiting McGill Redmen waltzed in to Sherbrooke and came away with a 19-5 victory to open their RSEQ regular season on Sunday.

Fellow countryman Alexander Russell and Sayf Al-Omaishi, a science sophomore out of Markham, Ont., each added a try for the Redmen

McGill (1-0) will make a quick jaunt across town next Sunday when they take on the Piranhas from École de technologie supérieure in a game to be played at the campus of Collège Notre-Dame  on Sept. 20 at 1 p.m.  ETS, which has never beaten the Redmen, owns an 0-1 record in the wake of a 25-3 road loss to the Montreal Carabins.
