GRR: 7s
The White Horse (Pa.) girsl team has been tearing it up in fall 7s this year in Pennsylvania.
Carroll HS of Fort Wayne defeated Penn HS 22-12 in the final of the inaugural Rugby Indiana Boys HS 7s league.
"This is our 1st year of 7s," said Carroll Coach Tom Riethmiller. "It's a good way to recruit, with the help from Olympic exposure, and re-energize our returning players. They get to play different positions at a higher pace."
The USA Rugby South U19 Panthers program has announced tryouts for 7s and 15s events in 2017.
