GRR: Rugby Colorado
Colorado Springs certainly sent a message to every other HS team in Colorado with an emphatic 43-5 defeat of a very good Littleton team Friday night.
Here’s a list of the other results in Colorado from this weekend:
Colorado Springs 43-5 LIttleton
Fort Collins 24-26 Grand Junction
Ridgeview 17-24 Westside
Rugby Colorado’s league season may be getting off to a snowy start - when does it not? - but it’s a start with many implications, as the Littleton Eagle take on perennial state champs Colorado Springs.
“We’ve been doing a lot of shoveling,” joked Littleton Head Coach Charlie Riley about his team preparing for the always tough Grizzlies.
The Rugby Colorado season gets going in earnest this weekend with a full slate of matches (weather permitting).
Heading the list of games is perennial contender East HS, which plays Regis Jesuit as the curtain-raiser for the two Pacific Rugby Premiership men’s club games to be held at Infinity Park in Glendale, Colo.
