High School Boys
The West Tennessee HS league is underway and already Germantown has turned some heads.
After edging the Storm 12-7 a week ago, Marc Holley’s team won big over Freedom Prep 50-5. That moved them to 2-0,but Holly is quick to point out that his squad lost to White Station in a non-matrix match on Friday.
“We still have a lot of work to do,” said Holley.
Olympus HS in Utah won two games in as many days as they beat East HS and Bear River.
Olympus got good performances from hooker Colin Burton, who scored a try, and No. 8 and captain Tyler Ringwood, who also touched down, as they beat East 28-17.
Here’s a quick look at Boys HS rugby along the West Coast.
It’s spring break in Oregon, so there’s only one round-robin, and that’s in the Varsity division. But there is more action elsewhere.
It’s been a busy week or so for Wando, as the South Carolina Boys HS program beat touring Bracebdge out of Ontario, won a league game, and then were upended in a close clash with visiting Georgetown Prep.
Wando beat Bracebridge 66-5 and then James Island 116-0, and would be forgiven for be supremely confident going into Saturday’s clash with Georgetown.
In our new feature Game-Breakers, we highlight some players who made an impact on the field this past week.
