GRR: HS Girls
Waverly-Shell Rock High School Girls upset the unbeaten Cedar Falls to win the Iowa YRA Girls 7s championship Sunday.
The annual Medstar National Rehab Hospital 7s tournament is set to return as the even celebrates its 10th anniversary.
Registration is open for the Gonzaga Rugby Classic, which will be held April 12-13, 2025.
This tournament is one of the shining tournament lights on the high school calendar. Remember last year when the final between Gonzaga and Charlotte Cardinals was decided right at the end ... and both of those teams went on to win their respective national championships.
Rugby Ohio's 7s season comes to a close this coming weekend with one team in a position of heavy favorite.
But, of course, that isn't always a welcome position to be in.
(Note: GRR Editor Alex Goff is an assistant coach for the freshmen at St. Ignatius.)
Cedar Falls, Waverly Shell Rock, Southeast Polk, and Central Springs are the top four teams in the Iowa Youth Rugby Girls 7s after this week's results.
But Central Springs is surging after two shutout wins on Monday, 31-0 over West Des Moines,and 34-0 over Mason City.
They are looking to run down Fort Dodge, which won a key game over Norwalk on Monday.
