Brother Rice vs Neuqua at Morton West at 4pm. It’s a great sport to see live.

Neuqua is going for the 3-peat.
 
Ruby is not a IHSA sport it’s a club. So they can give out a trophy but no IHSA trophy.



Like the Lacrosse cup few years ago


I am aware of that, just wondering how many teams there are in Illinois
 
Rice has an outstanding team. Many Football players. QB Bean is very good....Kirts....Desmond....Means. I played Rugby for a season on the CPD program when they used to have it years ago....thought after many years of playing Football this would fun and no problem....WOW was I wrong! Toughest sport I ever played!

It’s a great sport that is the epitome of team effort. Should be a great game Monday.

Here is the IL Rugby website with teams listed. Most of them play as a true club rather then as a school. Being a Club Sport a student from JCA could play for MC (example). Catholic League schools that have it are MC, Rice, Fenwick, Marist, Ignatius, and Rita.

Any idea how many Illinois high schools have Rugby teams?

Most of the teams that are the better teams have rugby teams. A few years ago Lincoln way had a team that had east central and provi players on it
 
I didn’t go but heard it was an amazing game all the way to the end. Congrats to Rice.
