GRR: Germantown
Rugby Oklahoma’s Bixby Rugby produced some notable results in a small tournament in Germantown, Tenn. over the weekend.
Bixby defeated Christian Brothers HS out of the Memphis area 41-19 and Father Ryan out of the Nashville area 21-7.
But perhaps the biggest result was a 15-13 defeat of Germantown, secured on the last play of the game.
