GRR: Rugby Ohio
Rugby Ohio is set for its championship weekend at Fortress Obetz in Columbus.
(Analysis Column by Alex Goff)—It is a rare thing that I as a journalist get a front-row seat to a championship team throughout the season.
St. Ignatius won their big rivalry game with St. Edward in Cleveland, with the #1-ranked Wildcats taking on the #20 Eagles.
The game was played in front of a crowd of at least 2,000 as this is the big high school sports rivalry in the city, with these two teams carrying a proud rugby tradition and being only a short drive from each other.
Top-ranked school team St. Ignatius played their first home game of the season at their ground in Cleveland, Ohio, and put #24 Moeller to the sword in emphatic fashion Saturday.
Word is that overall Boys HS rugby in Ohio is getting more competitive.
While it seems like St. Ignatius is a level above, St. Edward, Moeller, St. Xavier, and some of the clubs (potentially) raising their level as well.
