Idaho HS Season Kicks Off Friday
Idaho HS Season Kicks Off Friday
Rugby Idaho has a full schedule of games kicking off this weekend, with games as early as Thursday.
After a long wait, and basically a year from the last games to now, Rugby Idaho's high school seasons (boys and girls) are back.
Rocky Mountain goes in as one of the favorites in both Boys and Girls D1, but not prohibitively so. The upsets in the playoffs of the girls fall 7s

For the boys, Rocky Mountain comes back with a solid core of eight seniors and a good group of sophomores. Those seniors were all part of the team that won the 2019 Tier 2 National Championship. With plenty of depth Rocky Mountain will once again field two teams in league play. Eagle will once again be a thorn in Rocky Mountain's side with Mountain View chasing.
Capital HS could well be tough but they have some strict COVID rules as a school-supported team and so won't really come together until April. That could mean they will be behind early on, but could finish strong.

| 3/18 | Kuna Rugby Club | at | Rocky Mountain Black | Idaho D1 |
