North Carolina Opening Weekend Sees Top Teams Win Big
It's season-opening weekend for the CIF teams in Southern California.
The rugby community in the New York area was shocked last week to learn of the death of former national team player and recent Morris County HS Coach Troy Bartley.
A longtime standout in the front row for the New York Athletic Club, where he helped NYAC win multiple Super League titles, Bartley was a much-loved rugby man, teammate, and coach.
The first two Tier 1 games of the North Carolina school league ended with big wins for the favored teams.
NCYRU limits official listed winning margins to 35, so a 35-0 winning margin could well be larger in reality. But this allows teams to run on reserves once the result is not in doubt.
South Meck beat Clayton with the official score of 35-0 to start the season.
The Lions went 2-1 in pool play defeating the Central SA Academy 46-0 and the Mako Sharks 43-0. The Central SA team made the final in 2018.
In the final pool match the Lions lost to the Northwest Barbarians in a tight contest 19-14.
