GRR: Fort Hunt
The Richmond Strikers won the Rugby Virginia championship defeating Fort Hunt 45-39 Saturday.
This capped off a very good season for Richmond in which they love to play fast—a 45-39 scoreline is definitely a Strikers-like scoreline.
The Richmond Strikers defeated Vienna 33-17 over the weekend, making for a very close league in Rugby Virginia.
With Richmond having dropped a 24-14 decision to Fort Hunt the week before and in March Vienna beat Fort Hunt 19-12, this is a wide open league.
