GRR: Northern California
Jesuit of Sacramento moved to 2-0 in the NorCal Premier boys HS league after a tough 37-12 defeat of Mother Lode.
The Northern California Premier Varsity League is split into two halves, with the Premier on one side and the Top 5 on the other.
Granite Bay logged an important victory in Rugby NoCal's Premier League this past weekend, defeating the Solo Falcons in a curtain-raiser for the Cal v UBC game.
Playing at Witter Rugby Field was an experience for all of the players, but this was also an important league game for both.
The Northern California rain subsided just enough for Jesuit of Sacramento to face off against the top-ranked HS club Danville Oaks Saturday.
In a defensive-minded, and very scrappy game, Jesuit ran out to first-half lead and held off a furious Danville comeback attempt to win 20-11.
It's not often you get a #1 v a #2 HS game in February, but we have one this weekend.
