GRR: Hough
The Carolina Ruggerfest produced some girls performances of note.
And as we look toward a March and April in girls rugby some of the teams involved put their hands up.
The Hough Huskies capped off an undefeated season in North Carolina's single-school competition with a 40-10 defeat of Marvin Ridge Saturday in the league's championship game.
Hough will play Marvin Ridge in next week’s North Carolina School final, providing fans with a replay of last year’s championship match.
Both teams won their semifinals Friday night via shutout.
Hough won comfortably over Sun Valley, taking the game 56-0 (officially listed as 35-0 per NCYRU rules). But when we get to knockout rugby all bets are off about winning margins.
The Hough Husskies secured the #1 seed going into North Carolina's single-school Tier 1 semifinals after a comprehensive victory over Myers Park Friday night.
Things remain tight atop the North Carolina school league Tier 1 after Hough won big over Sun Valley.
The league limits winning margins to 35, so, with Sun Valley having scored on Hough we're listing the official score at 40-5. As a result, Hough moves to 5-0 and is now the only undefeated team in the league.
