GRR: Rugby Wisconsin
Rugby Wisconsin has named its all-state selections, with 41 players receiving mention.
Marquette University finished their season in a peak, beating a very good Green Bay Leprechauns team 50-0 to win the Wisconsin State championship.
It was a wet and muddy day and with the playoff games having produced various handling errors due in part to the conditions and in part due to defensive pressure, the same was expected in this final. However, the Hilltoppers adjusted.
It's not the most crowded weekend now that several states have wrapped up, but there are plenty of playoffs.
Marquette HS has seen its strong start at the All-Catholic Tournament in St. Louis translate nicely into Wisconsin league play.
The Hilltoppers are now 3-0 after Friday's emphatic 56-0 victory over Middleton.
Green Bay defeated Pulaski 44-17 win the Wisconsin Youth Rugby boys final Saturday, capping off another undefeated season.
This is the third straight state final for the Leprechauns. However, the games have become more and more competitive over the years. Gone are the major blowouts as more clubs have clawed their way out of COVID disruptions and bolstered heir numbers.
