Realignment, Growth in Florida School Leagues
Florida Youth Rugby will be unveiling its Boys HS schedules soon, and there have been some significant changes.
In Boys DI, gone are the four pools of four teams each, which provide competitors with a fairly unsatisfactory three-game schedule (and one pool had only three teams).
Replacing that system is ten-team DI competition.
Orlando Takes Florida Title
Orlando is the Florida Youth Rugby boys HS champions after beating Weston 21-18 Saturday in Palm Beach.
The game was a very tight affair throughout, and a contrast of styles as Weston tried to get the ball out through the backs, using the playmaking ability of scrumhalf Alex Ruiz and Matthew Mairowitz, and some expressive running by fullback Ramiro Fernandez.
