Despite losing one player to the HS All Americans and three more to the Stars & Stripes assembly, the Union Rugby Club HS team out of Tulsa, Okla., won the Parrothead 7s this past weekend. Union played well, said coach Jason Todd, but actually played better earlier in the Tornado Alley 7s, when their split their squad and finished 1st and 2nd.
The Stripes Boys team made it two-for-two in the Stars & Stripes games at the University of Northern Colorado in Greeley, Colo. Wednesday morning.
Led by a very cohesive effort and one early momentum-shifting score, the Stripes galloped past a hard-working Stars team 53-20.
The lineups for the Boys age-grade Stars & Stripes game have been announced.
The game is set for the morning of Wednesday, July 16. Check back with Goff Rugby Report for coverage.
