St. Ignatius won the Rugby Ohio Boys Fall 7s championships, unleashing a smart, skilled game plan that pushed aside opponents in all of the preliminary tournaments as well as the finals tournament on Sunday.
The Wildcats ended the fall 18-0, including eight shutouts and a points for-and-against of 668-58.
Word is that overall Boys HS rugby in Ohio is getting more competitive.
While it seems like St. Ignatius is a level above, St. Edward, Moeller, St. Xavier, and some of the clubs (potentially) raising their level as well.
