GRR: Iowa Youth Rugby Association
The numbers don't lie - Southeast Polk is, in the last five years, 71-0-3 in the Iowa Youth Rugby Association Boys 2A competition, and once again emerged winners of the state championship this past weekend.
The Iowa Youth Rugby Association 7s season has kicked off with 25 games on Friday.
Five teams - Ankeny Hawks, Ankeny Centennial, DM Lincoln, Marion, and Cedar Falls - went 2-0, while Wolfe Creek went 3-0. Ankeny Hawks player Jordan Sanderson led all players with four tries.
Transitioning from 15s to 7s is expected for the players with the Eagle Impact Rugby Academy 7s team set for the Victoria International 7s, but one of their number doesn’t have to worry about that.
Southeast Polk continued their four-year undefeated run in Iowa Youth Rugby Association 7s by winning the Iowa state tournament Friday in Des Moines.
Polk defeated Mason City 42-0 in the quarterfinals, DM Hoover 28-14 in the semis, and then Iowa City 35-14 in the final.
The Iowa Youth Rugby Association 7s playoffs begin Friday after six weekends of games through April and May.
In a development that should probably be no surprise to anyone, SE Polk is undefeated, going 10-0-2 so far. Polk hasn’t lost a 7s game in Iowa in four years.
