Iowa Central CC’s second-half surge to defeat Iowa State this past weekend was certainly a team effort, but it’s hard to ignore the contributions of one player.

A lot has been said and written about what rugby is, how to play it, and how to coach it—the World Rugby laws book alone is 160 pages long—and maybe sometimes too much has been said.
