Eagle Impact Rugby Academy has announced that it has brought on Brendan Keane full-time to serve as Associate Director alongside Director Salty Thompson.
Keane has been working for several years with the EIRA program in various capacities, kick-starting the Carolinas chapter while he was a teacher and rugby coach at Charlotte Catholic HS, and then coaching the EIRA U16s and U17s.
Peninsula Green rattled off six wins against one loss this past weekend at the Kickoff Tournament in Sacramento, but still found a formidable opponent in longstanding NorCal power Jesuit HS.
The results are a message that Pen Green could be a real player in the Northern California Premier.
Torrey Pines defeated Poway 35-7 to move to 2-0 in the Southern California Varsity Red San Diego division.
Union County downed the East Cobb Trojans 32-15 Saturday in cold, wet conditions in Georgia.
This was a Mid-South Independent Rugby League (MSIRL) game, and an important one for both. The game was 10-8 in favor of Union County (out of North Carolina), and 15-15 with about 12 minutes to go. But then Union County opened it up for three late tries to put the game away.
(Links in text are to YouTube highlights from the game). The La Costa Canyon Mavericks looked to build on their comprehensive 60-12 victory over Poway High School last week with this weekend clash with the Del Norte Nighthawks, and did so, taking a victory and moving to 2-0 in the SOCal Varsity Red San Diego division.
