High School Boys
When everyone in the Top Eight that played won, you might think we're pleased.
But in a way, we're not. We live for upsets. It's what makes sports so maddeningly fun. And if we got the rankings right the first time, we wouldn't have to update them!
The SLUH All-Catholic Tournament finished up with a strong performance from St. Thomas Aquinas.
Led by their second row pairing of Jake Ernsting and Carson Kraft, the Saints beat a very good SLUH team 14-3.
What a wild weekend in Boys HS rugby.
We went over some of the big games here:
Eastside of Washington Shuts Out Touring Granite Bay
Marin, SFGG Take Big Victories in NorCal
Boston College High won the Northeast Jesuit Tournament held at Fairfield Prep, beating the hosts in the final.
In a meeting of two of the top HS Clubs in Southern California, the San Diego Mustangs defeated the SOC Raptors 31-21.
The Mustang halfback combination of Spencer Huntley at scrumhalf and Rocco Pool at flyhalf produced the fireworks. Huntley accounted for nearly all of the scoring for the Mustangs with three tries, four conversions, and a penalty goal for 26 points on his own.
