WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) Winger James Lowe marked his 50th Super Rugby match with a set-piece try which lifted the Chiefs over the Hurricanes 17-14 in a rugged New Zealand derby on Friday.
Replacement Shaun Stevenson broke from a scrum near halfway and linked with Lowe, whose try gave the Chiefs a 14-7 lead after the teams were locked 7-7 at halftime.
Fullback Damian McKenzie clinched the win with a penalty five minutes from fulltime, though All Black brothers Beauden and Jordie Barrett combined to create a try for replacement winger Wes Goosen which cut the lead to four points and earned the Hurricanes a bonus point.
