GRR: Southern California
Two up-and-coming talents from Southern California - Liam Jimmons and Aaron Matthews - talk about all-star rugby.
The Southern California girls all-star team capped off a superb weekend, derating Washington 27-10 in the final of the Great Northwest Challenge in Portland, Ore. Sunday.
Washington had been something of a surprise arrival in the final after they came back form a 12-0 deficit to beat Northern California 14-12, kicking the winning conversion with almost no time left.
Southern California’s girls select side was outstanding in Saturday play in the Great Northwest Challenge.
With good teamwork from the forwards and with freshman fullback Lilly Durbin torching defenses every time they left her some space, the Griffins defeated Washington handily and crushed a combined NorCal/Oregon side.
Washington and Southern California led the field of Boys Varsity teams Saturday at the Great Northwest Challenge Regional All-Star Tournament in Portland.
