Final Matches Set in RugbyTown U18 7s
The final games are set in the Serevi RugbyTown 7s in Glendale, Colo.
Atlantis needed to win only one game in pool play on Saturday, and that's what they did, beating the Rocky Mountain Revels 36-7, but that was after a bit of a shock loss 19-12 to a resurgent ATAVUS.
The big game of Saturday was the Utah Lions v Upright Rugby Rogues at 8am, with the winner likely booking a place in the final. The Lions won 24-14, and then beat ATAVUS 33-10 to finish at 5-1 alongside Atlantis.
Those two will play in the final (live streamed at 3pm MT here http://infinityparkatglendale.com/rugbytown/matchplayer
The Rogues will face locals Glendale Raptors Academy for third. The Raptors beat the Rebels 15-12 and the Utah Cannibals 17-10. It's all been about the nailbiters for the Glendale Academy. Four of their six games were decided by a try or less, and another by only eight points. They could easily be 5-1, and possibly 6-0, but end up 3-3, with a shot at 3rd place.
ATAVUS will be pleased with the win over Atlantis, but were thumped by Glendale and take on the Rocky Mountain Rebels for 5th. Utah Cannibals end a disappointing weekend 0-6 and 7th.
