GRR: St. Edward
St. Edward continues to take steps forward in Ohio, and did so this past weekend with a win over Archbishop Moeller.
St. Ignatius is now at 9-0 after a 3-0 day at the Northern bracket of Rugby Ohio’s fall HS 7s.
The Wildcats beat Highland 25-7 and St. Edward B 48-7 before having to take on their own B side, a game they won 30-0.
