High School Boys
Northern California is full of games this weekend, even if they don't officially count toward the standings.
Top boys high school rugby teams who want to play for a national championship need to apply to be invited, and the deadline is fast approaching.
While the Boys Rugby National High School Championship is an invitation tournament, the invitations are based on current record, past success, and ability to make the trip (this year the BHSRNC is in Kansas City).
Teams from the Carolinas are on the rise. A quick glance through this publication’s single school and club rankings and you will see more than a handful of teams from that region. The area in and around Charlotte, NC in particular has more than a dozen high school teams in action this season. One of those teams, you might not have heard much about…yet.
Our first big rankings matchup in the Boys HS Club rankings saw #1 Danville take on #7 Peninsula Green, and the final score, 57-33 for Danville, fit right in with the rankings.
Here's a look at some of the top performers in Boys HS rugby this past weekend, with action from Northern and Southern California, Texas, Louisiana, Florida, and both Carolinas.

The Danville flanker was superb in stealing possession throughout an exciting win over Peninsula Green.
