GRR: Marvin Ridge
Hough will play Marvin Ridge in next week’s North Carolina School final, providing fans with a replay of last year’s championship match.

Hough won comfortably over Sun Valley, taking the game 56-0 (officially listed as 35-0 per NCYRU rules). But when we get to knockout rugby all bets are off about winning margins.

South Meck came into the game leading the league with a 4-0 record (tied with Hough), while Marvin Ridge was close with a 4-1 record.
