Oceanside, San Clemente Bring Talent to SoCal Multi-School Final

One of the odd little things about the way Southern California is split is that there is a school league that has multi-school teams in it.

This is a step between club and school, with teams that field the majority, if not all, of their players from one school. However, it’s not a guarantee that everyone on the team is from the same school.

Look Who Is Shaking Up Texas

If there isn’t going to be a changing of the guard in Texas school rugby, there is at least a shuffling of the guard roster.

Celina HS has emerged as a team to watch after their sterling win over Dallas Jesuit last week and then this week in their 88-12 victory over Allen.

Boys HS Club Rankings 2026 Week 8

We've not been updating the club rankings every week because the density of club games hasn't been super high.

But with the Puriri Memorial, we did have a bunch this week. Now, it's important to be careful about an event like the Puriri. This is a preseason event and teams often put out a development group and take a loss in order to help players get up to speed.

Raptors Defeat Golden Eagle in Opener

The Raptors of Tennessee met up with Golden Eagle out of Georgia in Knoxville, Tenn. Saturday, with the Tennessee team taking the game 24-3.

This was the first outing of the season for the Raptors and it showed as both teams struggled to get going on a muddy pitch. A young Golden Eagle had already played Roswell, losing a close one. They have strong numbers but need experience.
