Gamebreakers - HS Boys This Week
We didn’t do a Gamebreakers column last week - our apologies, sometimes it’s difficult to fit everything in - so here’s a list of players who made an impact for their high school teams over the last two weeks.
Josh Pane
The captain and No. 8 for St. Thomas thundered through defenses to lead the Houston-based team over New Jersey’s Delbarton.
St. Ignatius Starts Texas Trip With Win
Defending Rugby Ohio state champs St. Ignatius defeated St. Thomas of Houston, Texas 66-15 Monday in the first game of the Ohio team’s five-day, four-game tour of the Lone Star State.
Union Plays Two in Oregon
It was a quiet weekend in Rugby Oregon, but Union HS did get on the field, putting, as they usually do, two squad in competition.
The Union 2nd side tied Battle Ground 10-10, which was a very good result for the Union 2nds. The halfback combo of Parker Johnson and Austin Lewis played well against an experienced and physical Battle Ground team.
Santa Monica Notches Another Big Win
The Santa Monica Dolphins continued their unbeaten run by thumping Belmont Shore 52-0 this weekend in Southern California boys HS play.
Cy-Fair Defeated Kingwood in Texas
Cy-Fair defeated Kingwood 43-19 this past weekend in Texas HS play.
Kingwood has been slammed with injuries, including HS All American Dillon Shotwell, and was able to field only 18 for the game on Friday night. Meanwhile, Cy-Fair is starting to improve play, with new center Quinterlo Baker impressing observers with his speed and evasiveness.
