JV All-Stars May Be Bigger Scouting Opportunity
Scouting talent at the five Regional Cup competitions this weekend was a tall order.
HS All American Head Coach Salty Thompson was at one tournament, and had trusted observers at others. But the scouting takes on something of an altered tenor when you think about who is really looking at what.
Greenwich Continuity Wins in Northeast
The Greenwich/Fairfield team won the Northeast RCT in a tournament where three select sides couldn’t overcome the unity and power of a (mostly) single program.
Va Edges Fla in Pittsburgh
In perhaps the tightest final in this past weekend’s Boys all-star tournaments, Virginia edged Florida 19-17 to win the Mid-Atlantic Challenge Cup.
This game was a replay of the final from 2014, which was won by Florida. The Juice Head Coach, Chris Oosthuizen, said his team was better this year than last, which means Virginia was, too.
Formidable Utah Wins RMC Again
Utah dominated the field at the Rocky Mountain Challenge, providing four of the six finalists in three brackets, and winning all three finals.
Southern California Comes Back to Win SW RCT
The Southern California Griffins won the Southwest RCT Sunday in blistering heat in Bakersfield, Calif.
With MVP performances from Liam Jimmons (forwards, Back Bay), and Evan Clark (backs, Santa Monica), SoCal overcame a Saturday loss to Northern California to exact revenge early Sunday morning with a 26-24 victory.
