GRR: No name
There is still time to apply for the Boys High School Rugby National Championships.
The application window closes February 1.
Back we come with our Hot 100 top players of the fall in D1AA rugby.
We cross boundaries and borders, recognizing the best players in conferences that play a significant amount of time in the fall. So you won't see some of the conferences that play mostly in the winter/spring listed here. At the same time, there are some players who might be eligible to be listed twice.
The California D1AA Conference kicked off with three games and three of the teams thought to be conference title challengers all winning.
San Jose State opened their account with a 75-7 win over Nevada Reno.
“It was a solid first match out of the gates,” said Head Coach Nick Schlobohm, whose team allowed just a penalty try on the day.
Cathedral Catholic put down another marker in the SCIRF with an impressive 52-12 win over a very good La Costa Canyon side.
LCC came into the game 3-0 in the SCIRF, having beaten Patrick Henry, Saints, and Los Alamitos. Head Coach Michael Mukuru said that while the Dragons had started well, they knew Cathedral would be a challenge.
Snow and cold weather hit a few parts of the country not ued to it, so we had a few cancelations and postponements.
The Louisiana teams battled through some snow, although we did have one game moved to later because of the snow. Bless their hearts down there in the bayou but they don't really have the resources to handle a snowstorm.
