GRR: National Championship
(additional reporting by Owen Goff) Some good 7s has been played through the first two rounds of the Women's College 7s National Championship, but the best game thus far has been between California and Lindenwood. The pair were the favorites in Pool D, but the Lady Lions laid early claim to the top spot with a 15-10 victory.
(additional reporting by Owen Goff) Round I of the Women’s College 7s Championship has concluded, and for the most part, the results have matched expectations.
The Women's College 7s Championship is happening this weekend, and with Norwich unable to make the trip to Denver, a new champion will be crowned. We take a look at each pool and lend some predictions below, but be sure to watch this two-day event on USA Rugby TV, which will be live-streaming games.
Fallbrook has been wearing a target for the previous five years – the consequence of winning consecutive girls high school national championships – but in 2015, that mark seemed closer than usual. The Warriors lost a couple of tournament games in March, the SoCal league was providing inconsistent competition, and the team was chasing the development curve.
Fallbrook and South Bay played two very different styles in their respective national finals, but they were incredibly effective in producing big wins.
