GRR: Layton Christian
Layton Christian Academy won the Utah Youth Rugby boys 7s earlier this month, overcoming a strong field off opposition.
LCA has struggled with numbers because it's football season, said Head Coach Tongia Vaitaki. "But we were able to pull it off with the few numbers we got."
Layton Christian put down a market over the weekend as they beat Herriman 28-0 in Utah.
This is most definitely a message result, because while Herriman rarely loses, they most definitely rarely get shut out.
Layton Christian won both the Tier 1 and Tier 2 Utah Youth Rugby Boys HS fall 7s.
Under coach Tongia Vaitki Layton Christian has emerged as a real 7s power. Layton's 2nd side was dominant in the Tier II throughout the fall.
In Tier 1 it wasn't so easy. LCA dropped a game to East HS and was chasing a very good Olympus side much of the season.
Olympus and Layton Christian remain atop the Utah Youth Rugby boys fall 7s list after the second weekend of action.
LCA beat Kearns 45-7 and Herriman 21-12 but dropped a 27-19 decision to East HS.
That was East's first win over the fall as they skipped the opening tournament and they lost to Herriman and Olympus in a rough opening list of games.
