High School Boys
It's only week #2 in Florida's HS season and we're getting a sense of who might be pushing for a state title.
It will be Orange Lutheran vs Los Alamitos in the Southern California Single-School final next week after both won semifinals this weekend.
Los Alamitos, which had lost a nailbiter to Torrey Pines way back in December, handed Torrey Pines their first league loss of the season. In an entertaining contest Los Al pulled out 24-19 winners.
Northern California's club regular season officially kicked off with the first Premier League game, but there was some other action of note, too.
Marin, by two first-half tries from No. 8 Tomasso Visentin and two second-half tries from wing Matt Reilly defeated Mother Lode 54-12 to open their league account.
Hough will play Marvin Ridge in next week’s North Carolina School final, providing fans with a replay of last year’s championship match.
Both teams won their semifinals Friday night via shutout.
Hough won comfortably over Sun Valley, taking the game 56-0 (officially listed as 35-0 per NCYRU rules). But when we get to knockout rugby all bets are off about winning margins.
Well, well, now we're into it, aren't we?
