Boys HS Rugby National Championships Scores

Will Fagan photo.

Here are all of the scores from all of the brackets from the 2021 Boys HS Rugby National Championiships.

This tournament was brilliantly run by Bart Bottorff, Joe Sweeney, Joe Fridkin, and the volunteers from the Kansas City Blues. The referees, most from the Midwest and Kansas City area did a brilliant job in very difficult conditions.

Just a few interesting stats:

The seedings did well but not perfectly. #1 seeds finished 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. 

Higher-seeded teams won two-thirds of the time (24-12), but there were certainly some major seeding upsets, with Thunder (a #6) winning the HS Club bracket, and Aspetuck, a #7, finished 3rd.

Here's how the seeds faired (combining the finish of all three teams with a particular seed). Interesting fact, the #5 seeds averaged exactly 5th.

1st: #1
2nd: #2
3rd (tie): #3, #7
5th: #5
6th (tie): #4, #6
8th: #8
