Blake Wallace had a hat trick to help the Wolfpack to a 64-18 win over Batley. It's their 17th win in a row in the Betfred Championship.

Toronto earned the League Leaders' Shield on July 7, securing first place in the second-tier competition and guaranteeing a shot at promotion to the top-tier Super League.

The top four teams in the Betfred Championship and the bottom four teams from the Super League compete in the Super 8s following their respective regular seasons; the top three teams earn automatic promotion from that pool, while the fourth- and fifth-place teams play in the "Million Pound Game" for the final spot.

The 19-1-1 Wolfpack's next game is against the Rochdale Hornets on July 21 in Toronto. CBC Sports will live stream every Wolfpack league game this season.
