The Rugby Virginia girls high school league began last weekend, and all eyes were on West End and Fort Hunt, as the teams played out the rematch of the 2014 state title. What evolved, however, was a 75-5 victory for the Ruckettes.
Last week, Goff Rugby Report moved the Danville Lady Oaks from #4 to #3 on the Girls High School Top 20 ranking.
