The Union Mudturtles out of New Jersey won the Hell’s Gate 7s tournament, defeating Greenwich in the final.
The Mudturles defeated Fairfield Prep out of Connecticut to make the final, while Greenwich won comfortably in two games and had to really work hard to beat Play Rugby 29-26. Their semi was a rout of Winged Foot.
The good news for the Eagle Impact Rugby Academy team is that what was essentially the same group as the HS All Americans in Las Vegas, played better at the Victoria 7s; the bad news is, they lost the final anyway, losing 31-26 in overtime against British Columbia.
The BC Elite Youth 7s Gold team edged the Eagle Impact Rugby Academy 7s team 31-26 to win the Victoria International 7s.
EIRA led early in the game, fell behind 26-14, but tied the game up late to make it 26-26 at the end of the second ten-minute half.
However, BC scored in OT to win.
It was a decent 1st day of competition for the Utah teams in the Boys Open bracket of the Victoria International 7s Friday in Victoria, BC, Canada.
Despite only going through a couple of training sessions together, the Eagle Impact Rugby Academy 7s team is on a roll.
The group that is largely the same as the HS All American 7s team that finished 2nd to British Columbia in the LVI Boys Elite 7s, is hoping for a rematch in the final of the Victoria International 7s, and it looks like that is what will happen.
