GRR: Orchard Park
Divine Savor Holy Angels of Milwaukee, Wisc. defeated Colorado's Summit HS 15-5 to win the 2022 Girls HS National Championships Sunday at Notre Dame College in the Cleveland area.
This was the second-straight title for DSHA, as they won in 2019 and the tournament was not held due to the COVID pandemic in 2020 and 2021. This is the 9th championship overall for the Milwaukee school.
St. Bonaventure University is hosting a high school rugby tournament this coming weekend, the Bonnies HS Boys Challenge.
Participating this weekend are four teams from Western New York: Kenmore, Orchard Park, Canisius, and Fairport.
The teams will play shortened games of 20-minute halves, with rolling subs allowed.
In its first trip to the New York state championship, Orchard Park finished the final four weekend 2-0, ending with a 33-29 win over reigning girls high school champ Play Rugby Academy for the title.
