High School Boys
On a very wet field in The Rugby Garden in Wylie, TX, Woodlands of the Houston area held off St. Martin's out of Kansas 15-8 in a high-rankings showdown Saturday.
The Hough Husskies secured the #1 seed going into North Carolina's single-school Tier 1 semifinals after a comprehensive victory over Myers Park Friday night.
Woodlands takes on St. Martin’s Kingfishers in Dallas this weekend in an early-season meeting of two highly-ranked teams from different states.
Woodlands plays their players from one school in the Texas school league but they generally operate as a club, and as a club are ranked #5 by GRR.
There's a nice ongoing crossover series between Texas and Louisiana and that's a good thing for both states.
Texas and LouisianaTexas, in case you haven't noticed, is big, really big. So it's not like it's easy to make all those trips every week. Sometimes, for teams based in Houston, looking east to New Orleans helps.
It is very, very early days in the HS club scene so there is a chance for much change in the coming weeks.
Florida's league becomes the actual league, not preseason, this coming weekend. NorCal gets going a bit more, and a big game for Woodlands as well.
Jacksonville might be the dark horse in Florida and they play the very tough Okapi Wanderers this week.
