GRR: Midwest
Fishers had a big day at the Midwest Boys Championships, beating St. Ignatius 39-33 and then edging Royal Irish 20-19.
The Fishers backline put on a nice offensive display against St. Ignatius, and then brought a strong defensive effort against Royal Irish. Ignatius was held up in-goal right at the end of that game.
