GRR: Tournaments
Day One at the Gonzaga Classic saw some surprises and some teams true to form, especially within the Boys Premier.

The Gonzaga Classic boys competition promises to match up some high-level boys HS teams.
In the Boys Premier, 12 well-regarded teams face off.
Pool A sees #1 Gonzaga with Fairfield Prep and St. Louis University High. Fairfield has logged some good results of late while SLUH has shown flashes and probably would want a few close losses back.
The girls Gonzaga Classic promises to be a bit of barnburner this weekend.
Several national-level teams are in action, with Aspetuck perhaps leading the way after a pretty impressive March and early April.

Fourteen HS clubs and ten School teams have been selected for the 2024 Boys HS Rugby National Championships.
On Day One of the SLUH All-Catholic tournament, we saw some drama.
Two games were very, very close, as St. Thomas Aquinas edged Notre Dame de la Salette 7-0 in a game where both teams had chances.
Later on, St. Xavier needed all they had to beat SLUH 12-11.
