GRR: Woodlands
It's a competitive field in Rugby Texas this year and this past weekend's results change nothing about that.
Cy Fair won their second game in league play with a close victory over St. Pius X, while Katy also has that same 2-0 record against the same opponents, St. Pius X and St. Thomas. However, Katy was busy playing the Kansas City Junior Blues this week (a 40-24 loss).
The Woodlands defeated Strake Jesuit 63-12 Thursday evening in Rugby Texas league play to move to 3-0.
It was a solid game for the #4-ranked HS club. The Woodlands ran out to a 35-0 lead at halftime.
HS All American and Cal commit Tom Dixon started at No. 8 and scored five tries.
The Rugby Texas has started its season with a series of non-league games giving some teams a chance to warm up.
This weekend, Dallas Jesuit plays St. Thomas out of Houston, while St. Pius X visits Westlake.
West Houston is at Strake Jesuit, while Katy is at Lamar.
The Woodlands Boys HS team won the Boy's High School Elite Division at Bloodfest in the Austin, TX area over the weekend; the win was notable in part because Woodlands was the only non-select-side in the bracket, and took home the trophy regardless.
This follows on the Woodlands sweeping two previous 7s tournaments, making this the third tournament win this summer.
The Woodlands defeated St. Pius X 29-19 April 28 to take the Rugby Texas Division I state title in Austin, Texas, bouncing back from a very difficult semifinal game the day before.
