GRR: Gregory the Great
Gregory the Great, Doylestown, West Allegheny, and St. Joseph's Prep all recorded important victories in Week 4 of the Rugby Pennsylvania's Boys HS league to secure a spot in the state semifinals.
While West Shore didn't make the semis, they also recorded an important victory that potentially boosted their ranking.
Gregory the Great opened their season with an impressive 35-10 defeat of #16 St. Joseph's.
For GGA, a small boarding school just east of Scranton, Pa., rugby is THE sport of the spring, and they play a smart, very team-oriented game that gets around their usual lack of size with fitness and tenacity. This is exactly how they defeated St. Joe's.
Fort Hunt logged an impressive early-season victory this weekend, beating highly-ranked single-school Gregory the Great out of Pennsylvania 40-26.
Gregory the Great held off Cumberland Valley 18-10 to win Rugby Pennsylvania's single-school boys title over the weekend.
St. Edward and Gregory the Great met up on the campus of Saint Bonaventure University for a preseason game.
