GRR: 7s
Some of the top rugby talent in the Mid-Atlantic will be converging on Rockville, Md. October 28 for the Halloween Sevens.
Teams such as DeMatha, Saint Johns, Calvert Hall, DC Elite, Legion, Frederick, West Carroll, and the Maryland Exiles will be there. The Exiles have a long tradition of 7s success, and DC Elite will be heavy with Gonzaga players.
Schedule
Cumberland Valley HS is hosting a 7s tournament Sunday in Pennsylvania.
The tournament features several well-regarded HS rugby programs, giving newer players and athletes who don't play football some extra rugby time. Cumberland Valley will enter three teams, and so will LaSalle. Here is the schedule:
West Chester, PA (NSCRO Release) - An exciting opportunity is available from the National Small College Rugby Organization (NSCRO) to take the lead role in the administration of its Men’s 7s National Playoff Qualifiers and Championship!
Out of relative obscurity, Jesse Capriotti has emerged as a true 7s talent.
The Doylestown HS back was somewhat overshadowed this year by Mike Weir and Brian Stella, but he blossomed at the NAI 7s this month.
USA Rugby bestowed a much-agreed-with honor this past weekend when it named the Club 7s Championships trophy after Emil Signes.
