Penn HS and Royal Irish started the Rugby Indiana Super League on a winning note, as once again the league of four ranked teams kicks off.
Royal Irish played two games, one in-league and one not, beating Brownsburg 25-10 and then on Sunday defeating Ohio-based Archbishop Moeller School 41-9.
It was a good weekend for the defending HS club NIT champs.

Four girls HS teams played a round robin of shortened matches this past weekend at Penn HS in Indiana.
The host team did very well, winning all three games, while Illinois-based Plainfield and Indiana-based Warsaw both lost to Penn, tied each other, and defeated Hamilton, who finished 0-3.
Penn HS hosted a six-team boys tournament this weekend for high school rugby players who wanted to get some fall rugby in.
