Boys HS Rugby National Championships Scores
Here are all of the scores from all of the brackets from the 2021 Boys HS Rugby National Championiships.
This tournament was brilliantly run by Bart Bottorff, Joe Sweeney, Joe Fridkin, and the volunteers from the Kansas City Blues. The referees, most from the Midwest and Kansas City area did a brilliant job in very difficult conditions.
Just a few interesting stats:
An All-Time Great Final Sees Herriman Champs
The Boys HS National Championships sparkled at the end, especially with the Herriman vs St. Ignatius single-school final.
Herriman lost a lead and gained it back to win in dramatic fashion 22-17 after losing the last two finals on the final play. In doing so, Herriman overcame a skilled, smart, and enormously brave St. Ignatius team in the program’s first National Championship.
Thunder Rides Defensive Storm to HS Club Championship
Thunder Rugby defeated the favored Charlotte Tigers 13-8 in a tense, defensive battle that owed much of its appeal to the drama of the moment.
Thunder’s defense was once again massive. Through the three games of the Boys HS National Championships, Thunder gave up only three tries.
Single-School Day Two Comes Down to The Comeback
There is one major story in the Single-School Day Two of the Boys HS National Championships, so we'll tell that story.
