Nelson College Experience Exceeds My Expectations
Chuck Gehl had already accepted that he wouldn’t get the Nelson College scholarship.
The Missoula, Montana front-rower had been told he would not be going to New Zealand. But then, suddenly, it all changed. The US Rugby Foundation found funding for a third scholarship recipient, and Geh got the call.
State Finals And More Around the US
We crowned a few state champions over the weekend and learned who will be battling for a couple more.

Kalispell Boys Win Montana State Championship
Kalispell's Black and Blue boys team won the Rugby Montana boys HS title last month with a 38-10 defeat of Missoula.
Black and Blue started quickly with a try from No. 8 Alec Thomas. Scrumhalf Fin Nadeau scored the second try and then Thomas and Nadeau linked up with flyhalf Nolan White for the third try, which was set up by the pack winning the scrum against the head.
