Sydney University maintained outright fifth place on the North East AFL ladder with a 43-point win over last-placed Brisbane Lions at Blacktown International Sports Park on Sunday.
The Students had 10 individual goal scorers in the 103-60 win, including Ryan Brabazon and Jacob Derickx who each scored three, and Matthew Rawlinson, Tom Morrison and Max Wilson who each kicked two.
With back-to-back wins in the past two weeks, Sydney University have the luxury of a bye before playing two matches to complete the season proper.
The successive wins have given them a good buffer from sixth-placed Redland and kept them in touch with the top four.
UWS Giants still hold down first place on 48 points, with Aspley (40), Northern Territory Thunder (40), Sydney Swans (36), Sydney University (32) and Redland (20) making up the top six.
