Arizona Playoff Matchups Set

The playoff matchups for the Arizona Youth Rugby boys hs division are set after this weekend's results.

In the key game, Scottsdale played El Mirage in a matchup that would decide who has to play three-time defending state champions, Red Mountain, and who avoids them. Scottsdale pulled away late 39-31 to win. Desert Vista, looking to finish in the top four won a crucial decision 36-24 over Old Pueblo in Tucson. Red Mountain, meanwhile, had a make up game Friday night against East Valley and won 74-7, and then played Hamilton a day later and won 91-0, capping off an undefeated league season.

Red Mountain will play El Mirage next Saturday at 10am and Scottsdale will play Desert Vista at the same time for a spot in the State Championship game. The final will be played as a curtain-raiser to Arizona State's second annual Rugby Bowl game on April 18.
