High School Boys
New Orleans Jesuit wrapped up a good week with two wins, beating HCYA and East Jefferson over the weekend.
IN a few weeks St. Ignatius plays Xavier and, of things keep going the way they've been going, the winner of that game will be #1.
Right now Ignatius (as well as Gonzaga and, recently, St. Thomas Aquinas) are on tour overseas. That's good for the teams but difficult to judge for the rankings.
The game of greatest note this week had to have been #5 San Diego Mustangs over #3 Belmont Shore.
This is one of those games where we strongly suspected the outcome would be what it was (29-5 for the Mustangs) but had no evidence to back it up because of how the schedule falls in SoCal. We just had to wait.
The top-ranked HS clubs in GRR's Top 50 were in important action over the weekend.
The #1-ranked Charlotte Cardinals defeated an injury-hit Richmond Strikers in emphatic fashion 58-7. This was the general MO of a pretty polished Cardinals side that has been winning games by wide margins since club action began.
Fort Hunt defeated Vienna 40-31 Saturday in a rivalry match that has become known as the Battle of the Beltway.
It was a highly competitive, hard-fought, open, and high-scoring game that either team could have won.
