GRR: Rugby Texas
On a cold, rainy, unpleasant day Strake Jesuit edged Dallas Jesuit 19-14 in a clash of two of the strongest school teams in Texas.
Strake Jesuit landed a solid result in Texas with a 26-5 defeat of Cy Fair.
Senior Inside center Jake Foster scored three tries in the game and senior flyhalf Marc Arsham had an excellent game kicking for touch, getting his side on the front foot, and kicking from the tee (3-for-4 on conversions).
Strake Jesuit opened u their Rugby Texas season with a 36-10 defeat of Allen Saturday.
The Crusaders scored five tries in the first half to take a commanding 26-5 lead into halftime. The second half began with a quick score by Allen to make the score 26-10, but Strake Jesuit responded with two additional tries to put the game away.
New Orleans Jesuit put down quite the marker over the weekend, beating Dallas Jesuit in Texas.
Dallas was blooding some new talent but had experience and would have been expecting to put in a closer effort in this game, of not a win. The Rangers got tries from Jodan Mason and Neil Lancaster but New Orleans won big 47-10.
Along with Southern California and the Carolinas, we now have Florida, Louisiana, and Texas stepping onto the field.
How great is that?
