Texas Nuclear Thunder defeated Woodlands over the weekend to take the Texas girls state title.
TNT opened the season losing to Woodlands, but felt they were slowly inching closer to the defending champions. They won over Woodlands in their second meeting, and their third, before capping it off with a state championship.
TNT is a relatively new team, as this is only their third season in existence. The program has attracted more and more players. Emerson Callegari, daughter of Head Coach Charles, has been outstanding, but players such as Jada Zaragoza, Seven Suesue, and Jacoriah Washington also bring a combination of athleticism, speed, and a desire to play team rugby.
In addition, the TNT junior high team, coached by Cianna Callegari, has been very strong and sent several players to the USA South Panthers teams at the Tropical 7s.
