UtahHowever, we did see Herriman produce an emphatic win over Highland 60-28. Herriman led 60-7 until late. Kaden Sturgis scored two tries, both on interceptions, while Logan Youngblood and Mote Kinikini showed well.

It's early days but we have some high-profile games in boys HS rugby in January already.
