De La Salle put down a bit of a marker this week with a 24-3 defeat of then #13-ranked SFGG in Northern California.
It was a tight, competitive game, but De La Salle did well to hold SFGG away from the tryline.
Well this ranking is a) very difficult to do this week and b) late.
One might follow the other, but we were also in the GRR-mobile for two days following the CRC and we don't have a rankings stenographer in the passenger seat to help us form out thoughts.
Almost a month after Georgetown Prep and Gonzaga battled to a 26-26 tie, the two teams almost ended this week's game deadlocked once more.
In the end, Gonzaga capitalized over Georgetown Prep's penalty problems and inability to secure their own lineout to win in dramatic fashion 18-13.
Paced by two tries from Jacob Bower the SOC Raptors won yet another nailbiter in Southern California, holding off a determined San Diego Mustangs 24-21 in a midweek clash.
It wasn't a huge weekend for games, especially among school teams, but we did see a few that prompted moves.
Cardinal Moeller was very impressive in the Rugby Ohio playoffs and that, along with a close loss to St. Ignatius earlier, moves them up. Dwenger, which lost to Moeller in a close one some months ago, follows thanks in part to their solid weekend.
