Summit and the Fall Rugby Classic 10s

Saturday saw a full day of rugby with the Fort Collins Youth Rugby Girls playing Summit to a 5 all tie in their league match and finishing second in the Fall Rugby Classic 10’s tournament.

The league match against Summit saw a lot of defense by both teams and at halftime there was still no score. Second half saw Fort Collins drive deep into Summit and when Summit tried to kick the ball clear it was blocked and scored on by Ali Kosakowski. The match continued to be a lot of defense including Fort Collins holding Summit out of the try zone for several minutes. Finally on the last play of the match Summit was able to get it wide and score in the corner to end the match in a tie.

In the 10’s tournament 12-teams played in 2 divisions of round-robin play, which Fort Collins played Highlands Ranch in the first match and won 32-0 and Littleton in the second match, winning 17-5. In the Championship Fort Collins played ThunderRidge and fell behind at half 10-0. Second half showed better play but with the amount of matches played the team was running out of energy and with a last second penalty kick, ThunderRidge won the Championship 13-0.
