The high school select side tournaments are coming back.
After last month's news that the Rocky Mountain Challenge will return, another tournament has been announced with the Rugby Ohio Buckeye Invitational June 25-26 in Dublin, Ohio.
The age-grade select-side tournament that ruled the roost for many years is back, and just in time, too.
This year it seems unlikely that there will be the sort of high school all-star tournament we've been used to seeing every summer, but there will be one event.
High school rugby has seen a few changes over the past year and the past decade, most of it good as more teams and more players are playing a decent-to-good level of rugby.
Most of the news is good news, but all of the new is a story, and we wanted to look at the biggest and most important stories in the high school game.
Here are our HS Select-Side rankings for JV boys teams —also known as Tier 2.
We looked at how teams performed in the tournaments and gave some losing teams credit for close losses. But if you are inconsistent, that drops you down.
