GRR: Michigan HS Rugby
Grandville successfully defended its Michigan state championship, defeating Traverse City 56-0 for its second-straight title. The Bulldogs are now 20-0 over the previous two fall seasons.
The Michigan girls high school league is poised to kick off this weekend, and the big question will be: Can Grandville repeat its first-ever state championship, or will traditional power Traverse City reclaim the top spot? Grandville finds itself in a similar state as last year in terms of depth and experience, but the young program has proven that the rebuilding process doesn’t have to get in
Earlier in the season Grandville faced Rockford in the Michigan Boys HS league, and won 15-12, but it wasn’t the same close outcome this time around, as Grandville used the wide field to open up the game and spread Rockford defense, winning 25-7.
