GRR: Awards
It’s not every day that a rugby player scored 35 points in a rugby game, and it was certainly of note that Jon Rogers did so last weekend.
Rogers, who is a smart, savvy back for Granite Bay and also a strong goalkicker, is now one of the leading players on a team hoping to repeat the form that saw the Grizzlies win the Boys HS Club National Championships last year.
Here's a look at some of the top performers in Boys HS rugby this past weekend, with action from Northern and Southern California, Texas, Louisiana, Florida, and both Carolinas.
Tyler Nunnery, Danville
The Danville flanker was superb in stealing possession throughout an exciting win over Peninsula Green.
We're back with some Men's College Gamebreakers - who had a good weekend at the end of January.
Josh Dyson, Clemson
The Tigers prop scored two tries and was all over the place for Clemson in their win over South Carolina.
Kevin Schofield, BYU
Scored seven tries for BYU in wins over Cal Poly and San Diego State.
In the torrid start that the Saint Mary’s Gaels have enjoyed this winter so far, the back row has been at the center of everything.
With the demands on a high school rugby player’s time, rugby 7s has to work hard to find a place, and certainly that hard work is worth it when you find a special talent.
