St. Ignatius Goes 3-0 in France

St. Ignatius of Ohio is on tour in France, and finished the trip with a 3-0 record.

Ignatius began the trip with a 29-10 victory to Sporting Club Universitaire de France. It was a smart and savvy SC Universitaire team, and Ignatius struggled with some laws interpretations. As a result, penalties hurt them, and they saw little ball, but managed to make it work when they got it.

The next two teams were expected to be stronger, but Ignatius started to adjust. On Monday, Ignatius took down Lycee Albert Sorel in in Normandy, 17-12. And in the final match of the tour they beat RC Courbevoie 29-14. 

Ignatius gets no rest as once they come back from the tour they will face the Kansas City Jr. Blues and Gonzaga HS in quick succession. Then they take on Xavier in New York and Royal Irish a week later.
