Gates delivered in back-to-back wins for Durham as part of the opening weekend in OCAA women's rugby sevens on Oct. 2. The first-year back showcased incredible athleticism in her debut with the Lords. Gates led Durham in scoring with two tries and three converts in their 40-5 season opening win over Seneca. She then followed that up with another big scoring effort, recording a try and five converts in Durham's 33-7 victory over Fleming. In two games to open the new season, Gates tallied 31 total points with three tries and eight converts.
