GRR: No name
Very soon the United States Rugby Foundation will announce its new Ball-4-All donation recipients.
But it’s worth noting two things about that:
While we don't have a ton of changes at the top of the D1A rankings, we do have a change at #1.
Cal moves up to #1 after a shutout win over Arizona. Remember, Arizona held Saint Mary's to a 12-10 Gael victory, and we're thinking that if you factor that in with a 24-22 Life win over Saint Mary's, and the fact that Life also beat Navy, we kind of have to make the move.
The Okapi club out of Southern Florida visited Jesuit New Orleans this past weekend in a cross-board clash.
Jesuit had just dug itself out of a snowstorm, a very rare occurrence for New Orleans, and, yes, it's still early days for both teams. However, it was Okapi's ability to control field position that told the tale, with the Florida team winning 45-5.
For the most part the results we saw among School teams this week were as expected.
Dallas Jesuit put in a very night result, while we weren't sure what to expect in GGA vs Vienna—that ended up being 7-3 for Greg's and we are sort of holding steady for them with that result. It's very early for the cold-weather teams.
We're back with our Hot 100 top players of the fall in D1AA rugby comes, and now we hit the rest of the forward pack with Locks and Loose Forwards.
