Cumberland Valley Hosts Sunday HS 7s
Cumberland Valley HS is hosting a 7s tournament Sunday in Pennsylvania.
The tournament features several well-regarded HS rugby programs, giving newer players and athletes who don't play football some extra rugby time. Cumberland Valley will enter three teams, and so will LaSalle. Here is the schedule:
Ramblin' Jesters Young 7s Player of the Month - Jesse Capriotti
Out of relative obscurity, Jesse Capriotti has emerged as a true 7s talent.
The Doylestown HS back was somewhat overshadowed this year by Mike Weir and Brian Stella, but he blossomed at the NAI 7s this month.
EIRA, Atlantis Tops in NAHS 7s
With the NAI 7s done, the 2017 North American HS 7s Series is done, with Eagle Impact Rugby Academy and Atlantis taking the Boys and Girls series titles, respectively.
Dixon 7s Showcases NorCal HS 7s
The Dixon HS 7s were held last week, with Danville taking the Boys Varsity DI bracket, and the Land Park Harlequins taking the Girls Varsity bracket.
Land Park went on to show well at the NAI 7s in Salt Lake City.
