The Canadian women's rugby 15s team wrapped up the Pacific Four Series with a dominating 45-7 win over Australia's Wallaroos at TD Place in Ottawa on Friday night.

Canada wraps up the series with a 2-1 record, while Australia was 1-2. Led led by captain Sophie de Goede and Tyson Beukeboom Canada dominated from the start and never looked back.

Leading 26-7 to start the second half, Canada didn't take long to put the game further out of reach starting with Claire Gallagher scoring her first international try at the 45 minute and Beukeboom picking up her second of the game to make it 40-7.

With a commanding lead Canada made a number of substitutions, but continued to dominate and Beukeboom completed the hat trick at the 68 minute with a dive across the goal line making it 45-7.
