GRR: Utah Youth Rugby
Herriman high school's game this past weekend was snowed out, but that was far from the worst news of the week for the team.

Prior to the pivotal matchup in Utah between rivals Genesis and United, both clubs learned about the special significance of this particular match.

Slowly teams in Utah Youth Rugby are getting going and the traditional kickoff event has for years been the Ra Puriri Invitational in St. George, Utah.

The splitting of Brighton and Copper Hills was good news for both, as the cohesion of players who are familiar with each other was evident.
