High School Boys
Northern California HS rugby just had its busiest weekend of the New Year, with the single-school competition kicking off its opening weekend.
The big game in Southern California saw the top SoCal Youth Rugby single school team against the leading SCIRF team in Cathedral Catholic.
These teams are both feeders for the San Diego Mustangs club, so it was a bit of a Mustangs cup. And in a very, very well-played game played in front of a robust and loud crowd, the teams played to a 28-28 tie.
Oceanside HS won a meeting of two 2-0 teams in Southern California’s Multi-School league, beating Murrieta 36-31.
It was an exciting and tightly-contested game as top of the table was at stake. Oceanside’s strength was probably in the forwards. Thomas Reynoso, Zavier Leatherman, Jonah Tua, and Kingston Faatili all provided powerful carries and tested the Murrieta defense.
Rigby Ohio's new elections are completed and the results aren't decisive one way or the other.
For the agents of change who wanted to see a new Board, the election did not deliver a landslide.
For the incumbent group of Boardmembers, the election did not deliver a vote of confident.
Well, well. Something like 45 games are on our Boys HS slate this week.
North Carolina's single-school league is coming to a culmination. This week we do have games that don't carry a lot of weight unless there's a big upset. But, yes, we might see an upset, but we also have a forfeit.
