Wando Wins South Carolina HS
Wando Wins South Carolina HS
Wando, ranked 1st in the state and 21st nationally, was able to capitalize on depth and experience to capture their first state title.
Greenville, ranked 2nd in the state and 25th nationally, captured the top title in 2008 and played a great match, but ultimately failed to take advantage of their opportunities to put points on the board.
Wando reached the championship match by defeating longtime rival Chapin Eagles Rugby during an April 5th playoff game, while Greenville defeated a very strong Charleston Gladiators (Summerville, SC) team in their playoff game.
In DII action, the Raven’s Rugby Club (Charleston, SC) defeated Wando Rugby Club’s DII team 40 – 5 to capture their first Division II Championship.
Rugby South Carolina wishes to thank John Roberts and Furman University for hosting this event at their fabulous facility and helping to make it a great day of rugby.
The top teams in South Carolina will now head to Charlotte, NC to compete in the South High School Championships on May 3-4, 2014.
