May 2-3 Preview

This weekend is a big weekend for Wisconsin U19 Girls Rugby. Obviously, the big show for the weekend takes place in Carmel Indiana at the Midwest Girls Rugby Tournament. Click here for a link to the official brackets. DSHA (WI #1) and CMHS (WI #2) will compete in the cup bracket, with hopes of bringing home the Midwest Cup to Wisconsin soil once again. Vernon (WI #3) will be representing Wisconsin in the Festival division.

Last fall, DSHA earned the top spot after defeating CMHS is a narrow, nail-biting 5-0 victory. Vernon secured it's 3rd place standing with a 24-7 win over Brookfield in the Fall 2008 conference. The complete play-off brackets from the Fall 2009 season are available here.

Meanwhile, KM has organized the MN-WI Border battle, which will pit top teams from Minnesotta High School Girls Rugby Union (Wayzatta, Armstrong and Orono) against Kettle Moraine, Brookfield, Fond du Lac, Oak Creek, with a guest appearance from Rockford Il. This is a great opportunity to see some diverse competition up in Mauston, WI. Thanks to Noe, KM's coach, for all his efforts putting this together!

Good Luck everybody as we take on out-of-state competition!
