The Harpeth Harlequins moved to 3-0 in Middle Tennessee action with aa 31-7 defeat of the Raptors in fairly convincing fashion this week.

The Harlequins were in control for much of the game and led 24-0 at the halftime break. It was the Harpeth defense that won the game, suffocating the Raptors and not allowing them any space to attack. Forwards Daniel Helton, Toby Hottes, and Jason Arden all touched down for the Harlequins, and backs Max Ponce and Nathan Crawford also got tries.

There are still several games to go, but the Harlequins look in an excellent position leading into the Tennessee state playoffs.

This weekend they are set to face BRRS while Tennessee Rugby Academy will take on Sumner County. State playoffs are set for May 1.
