WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) Flyhalf Beauden Barrett scored 22 points including a last-minute try that earned a bonus point for the Hurricanes who beat the Kings 42-20 in Super Rugby on Friday.
Barrett pounced on a loose pass in the final play of the game to race away for a try which created a flattering winning margin for the Hurricanes. Replacement Vince Aso also scored a try inside the last 10 minutes which finally ended the challenge by the resilient Kings.
The Hurricanes led 19-3 after 26 minutes but squandered that advantage and saw the Kings close to 19-17 at halftime.
The teams were separated by five points or less until the 66th minute when Barrett kicked his third penalty, then the Hurricanes' two late tries secured a bonus point.
