GRR: Rugby Oregon
Union HS remains undefeated in Rugby Oregon’s fall HS 7s competition as the teams enter into the final weekend of regular competition.
Next week will see teams play for various trophies, but right now it’s still part of league play, and Union sits 12-0, just ahead of 10-1 Portland Pumas.
The Rugby Oregon Girls 7s season got off to a nice start Saturday at Lentz Park in Portland with the Grackles once again leading the way.
The Grackles dominated in their first two games over the Crubarians and Linn Benton, but had to work a little harder for a 19-15 victory over the Valley Panthers Black team.
The fall 7s season is underway at Rugby Oregon and the Aloha/Beaverton boys team has started strong.
This past Saturday at Lentz Park in Portland, Aloha/Beaverton defeated Oregon City, Lakeridge, and the Valley Rams to go 3-0 on the day. Meanwhile, the Portland Pumas played only two games, but won them both, beating Lincoln and Newberg.
There are plenty of high school and youth rugby connections on the USA team slated to play Tonga this afternoon (ESPN3, kickoff 3:30pm ET from Toronto).
It's the second week of 7s action among Boys HS teams in the Pacific Northwest.
