GRR: Woodlands
Strong HS teams in the middle of the country are looking for games and that's why Woodlands out of Texas will spend the weekend in Kansas City.
The Woodlands Youth club in out the Houston, Texas area is hosting its annual Come and Take It tournament, bringing in hundreds of young rugby players from all over the region.
Woodlands Rugby hosted the Kansas City Jr. Blues and the Mexico City Aztecas this weekend, as two teams going to the National Championships sought some challenging warmup competition.
In the end, both Woodlands and KC won their games against the Aztecas, and Woodlands, ranked #4 by GRR, also defeated #23-ranked Kansas City.
Woodlands ran through a 19-1 season to win the Rugby Texas girls championship this past weekend, defeating rivals North Texas for the title.
Capping off the Rugby Texas season was a multi-tiered affair, but in the end we have what we knew already—there are at least six very strong teams in the state, and most aren’t separated by much.
