High School Boys
Our Player of the Week this week is Andrew Smith.
In a week where Granite Bay launched itself into the national conversation with an emphatic defeat of the Solo Falcons, Smith was perhaps the best of several great performances.
“He was clutch in every phase of the game,” said Head Coach Jason Divine.
Unionville launched themselves into the Goff Rugby Report single-school rankings after defeating two-time defending state champion Cumberland Valley.
Cumberland Valley went up 13-12, scoring a try with about eight minutes left in the match. Unionville answered back with their own try with two minutes left to make it 17-13, and that's how the game ended.
Wando remains undefeated in South Carolina after beating one of their chief rivals, Chapin, 47-0, and then defeated a Canadian touring team 21-17.
Pelham HS out of New York finished up their trip to Florida with a 38-10 defeat of the Cape Pirates.
Pelham, having already put RBMA to the sword, mixed up the team's lineup somewhat, and ran out to a 33-3 halftime lead, before the subs were run on.
The Rugby Texas North/Central Conference may well come down to this week as Lake Travis and Rocky Rugby meet up Thursday to basically decide who will finish 2nd.
Westlake has already beaten both of these teams, albeit by razor-thin scores of 12-7 and 15-12.
