Girls Rugby 7s
The Girls Rugby 7’s season was supercharged with lots of new faces, hard tackles, and big breakaway runs. With a large infusion of new players at every grade level, the girl's rugby program grew in numbers significantly this year to help replace a large class of recently departed seniors. This season was defined by the team’s commitment to getting better and deepening their love for the sport. The coaches were particularly proud of the positive spirit and camaraderie that the team carried throughout this season. They really picked each other up, celebrated each other’s successes, and made coming to practices and games fun!
