Rugby Georgia Opens Season
Rugby Georgia opened its regular season this past Friday with a restructured format including both JV and Varsity boys teams; three middle school teams were also in action.
JV Division
EIRA Player of the Week - Patrick Madden
Sometimes the article just writes itself.
Patrick Madden, flyhalf for the University City Honey Badgers, scored all 20 of this team’s points in the game to decide who wins the Southern California Varsity White San Diego conference. UC beat Rancho Bernardo 20-12, with Madden scoring two tries, converting both, and adding two penalty goals.
KOT a Big Success
The Sacramento Valley Rugby Foundation's 32nd Annual Kick Off Tournament (KOT) was yet another successful start to the high school rugby season.
Point Loma Wins SoCal Blue
Even without a playoff, the Southern California Varsity Blue division came down to the final game, with 4-0 Point Loma HS taking on 4-1 Valhalla.
And in a classic close game, Point Loma emerged victorious 36-27 to cap off an undefeated conference season. There is no playoff series in the Blue Division, so it's all down to who wins the league standings, and that's Point Loma.
SoCal Varsity White Playoff Teams Set
The playoff teams in Southern California’s Varsity White division are confirmed after this past weekend’s results.
View Park Prep shut out Dana Hills 44-0 to secure the third playoff spot in the Los Angeles Conference. Mira Costa had already wrapped up #1, and St. John Bosco received a forfeit win over Wilson to take 2nd.
