High School Girls
Tackle high school rugby is back in Oregon with a summer 7s series for both boys and girls.
We have some fuller lists from several programs, including Purdue and Marian men's programs, and some women Ivy-Leaguers with Harvard, Brown, and Dartmouth adding to their commits for the fall.
As we are about to wrap up our HS rankings, here's a look at the state champions around the country.
Eagle Impact Rugby Academy is holding camps at Moose Rugby Grounds in Indiana for high school players, and if there's anything new about it all, it's the number of girls involved.
Rugby Montana crowned its girls HS champions late last month with the Bitterroot Koa Wahines edging the Kalispell Black & Blue 19-10 in the final.
The Koa Wahines hit their peak at the right time, cruising through the playoffs with wins of 33-5 and 48-0 before taking on the very tough Black & Blue, a game that Coach Dana Cather called a slugfest.
