Gamebreakers - BHSRNC Single-School
Three Gamebreakers columns this week as we look at the best players from the Boys HS Rugby National Championships.
NAI 7s Slated for July - Space Available
The North American International 7s still has a little bit of room for top boys HS 7s teams to compete.
The NAI 7s is slated for Salt Lake City July 29-30 at the Salt Lake Regional Athletic Complex.
Nicolet Learns from Loss, Wins Wisconsin
In a season of redemptive championship games, Nicolet of Glendale, Wisc., defeated the Chargers of Sheboygan 21-15 to win the Boys DI HS state championship in Wisconsin.
The two teams had met before in Badgerland Conference play, with the Chargers eking out a 5-0 win. But this time, it was Nicolet that would come away victorious.
Xavier Wins New York
On a rainy June Sunday Xavier HS defeated rivals Pelham HS to win the Rugby NY Boys DI title.
In the rain, Xavier played a very structured style of percentage rugby, and waiting for chances to attack wide. While Xavier looked to pressure Pelham in the mauls, Pelham defended those very well, forcing the Xavier backs to do more.
Archmere, Exiles Win HS 7s Brackets
Archmere won the Boys HS Open and the Maryland Exiles won the Boys HS Elite 7s at the HSRC in Chester, Pa. Sunday.
Archmere defeated Media 22-5 in the semis, and West Chester downed Downingtown 21-12 to make the championship game.
