Syracuse, NY – Coming off the success of the past two years, Leinster Rugby in partnership with Syracuse University has announced the third edition of its School of Excellence.
We did do a video on clubs to keep an eye on, but one team we didn't discuss was Scottsdale.
In fact, we now have four teams from Arizona in the Top 50. There's no guarantee they will all stay, but it seems clear to us at GRR World Headquarters that the state is more competitive than it has been in a while. All of that is good for the game.
The Okapi club out of Southern Florida visited Jesuit New Orleans this past weekend in a cross-board clash.
Jesuit had just dug itself out of a snowstorm, a very rare occurrence for New Orleans, and, yes, it's still early days for both teams. However, it was Okapi's ability to control field position that told the tale, with the Florida team winning 45-5.
For the most part the results we saw among School teams this week were as expected.
Dallas Jesuit put in a very night result, while we weren't sure what to expect in GGA vs Vienna—that ended up being 7-3 for Greg's and we are sort of holding steady for them with that result. It's very early for the cold-weather teams.
Northern California HS rugby just had its busiest weekend of the New Year, with the single-school competition kicking off its opening weekend.
