High School Boys
The Grandville HS rugby team won the programs’ third Michigan state championship in four years with a 13-3 defeat of Kalamazoo this past weekend.
There weeks before Rugby Oregon’s finals weekend, undefeated Polk County faced off with undefeated Northside Panthers, and the Panthers won 38-17.
Both teams ended up winning their respective conferences anyway, but it seemed clear that Northside was the stronger team.
Of course, that’s why they play the playoffs.
After moving up from DII to DI this season, the Rainier Highlanders wanted to show they could compete in DI, and would be able to compete for a long period; on Saturday, they showed they can compete now, and for tomorrow.
We've got a good number of HS club games left in this season, but this week we've got the framework for how it will likely all finish.
A couple of observations as we hit what is very nearly the final rankings for single-school boys teams.
We will update these rankings a few more times because of regional playoffs, but this is the big one - we can't see there being any change in the top three or four.
