Boys HS Games This Weekend

Fort Hunt one of many teams looking for a championship.

The playoffs are hitting states all over the country now, and we've got the list.

Some games to watch - Doylestown has looked like the top team in Rugby Pennsylvania's club competition, and beat Saturday's semifinal opponents, West Chester, by 62 points back in April. They won fairly comfortably over the other two semifinalists, as well, and are expected to cruise. The winner of this playoff will get a spot in the Boys HS Rugby National Championships

The single-school semis are a little tougher to call, as any of the final four could win out. Conestoga, however, looks pretty strong. The Rugby Pa playoffs finish up on Sunday.

In another game that has Nationals seeding ramifications, Chapel Hill plays Union County for the North Carolina club title. The winner is in the top tier of the BHSRNC, and the losing team still attends, but in the Combined tier.

Elsehwere, Georgetown and Gonzaga won their semis and will face each other in the MAVRC Final. This is a matchup that ended 20-10 in Gonzaga's favor earlier this season. Maryland sees their club final played with the Exiles against West Carroll. And Idaho caps off a very competitive season with a finals day. South Carolina crowns its champ - either Wando or South Greenville. They won semis last week.

Colorado goes into the semifinals, with Regis Jesuit heading up a pretty deep group. Washington is in the same situation. We've seen two years straight where the defending state champion has not qualified for the playoffs the next year. Now it's completely up in the air. Eastside plays Rainier in a rematch of a game that went 12-12 last time. Liberty plays Chuckanut, a matchup that was 36-33 for Liberty last time. 

Oregon has its semis set up, too. Union, which went to the Pacific Cup last week, came out saying they had learned a huge amount and would translate those lessons into their playoff play. Few would doubt that. Things are more uncertain the club playoffs, as Beaverton, Polk County, Northside, and Bend are all good. Beaverton and Polk played once before in a game that was three tries each - but Polk converted theirs. Northside and Bend played once before, and it was a big win for Northside. So the Northside v Beaverton game should be a barnburner.

In Utah and Virginia it's also playoff time.  The Utah single-school semis feature four of the best single-school teams in the nation. This will be an intense weekend for them. In Virginia, it's tough to vote against Fort Hunt, a team that has been playing some inspired rugby this season.

Also, check out our look at the HSE v Fishers rivalry game here.
