High School Boys
The Saint Ignatius High School Wildcats rugby team finished up their tour of Argentina with three games against Mar del Plata Rugby Club on April 4.
Pelham HS defeated Fairfield Rugby Club on Thursday, edging there Connecticut team 22-19.
This was a Spring Break game for both and a good challenge. Fairfield brought a strong defense and while Pelham rested some players, they expected perhaps for their play to produce more tries than it did.
“In three years of playing varsity, I think that was the best Xavier Rugby has played,” said senior fullback Padraig Long and Man of the Match when describing the Knight’s win over Shawnigan Lake High School, a top tier rugby program in Canada. “The boys were on top of it from the beginning,” Long said.
St. Ignatius of Cleveland is on tour in Argentina and GRR is with them.
It was a massive weekend for the Panther Rugby Academy at Tropical 7s.
