Cavemen defeated LCA 36-31 in sudden-death overtime to win the Utah Youth Rugby Boys Teir 1 championship.
This was a rematch of a game that saw a 5-5 tie the last time Cavemen and LCA played.
In a back-and-forth, wild game, the teams traded tries throughout the first half.
Both teams tried to control the gainline with some very physical defense, but the enthusiasm sometimes left little gaps to exploit.
And with both teams showcasing players who can run, can sidestep, and can bull over tacklers, it started to become a bit of a track meet.
LCA opened the scoring, Cavemen responded. LCA scored another impressive try, and Cavemen who stretch the defense and go over.
LCA took a 21-14 lead into the closing moments of the halftime break only for Cavemen to once again work their magic. Both teams kicked very well for goal and it was 21-21 at halftime.
