Memorable Events
First time ever that the AFA Rugby team made it to the Las Vegas Invitational D1A collegiate finals. Even in defeat in that match, there was much to say (Coach Merideth) Gentlemen, The team play in Las Vegas certainly laid down some markers for all to follow! Although the final against a very strong Kutztown certainly was not what we wanted for our final match of the tournament the overall week of play was inspirational. Our challenge now is to take the lessons learned to position us to win the All Academy 7s in West Point at the beginning of May! Congratulations are in order for the entire team for making it to the finals of the Las Vegas 7s for what I believe is a first for an Academy team. Also, beating last year's CRC Champs St Bonaventure in pool play was no small feat. The poise and control produced wins throughout the pool and playoff rounds. In the finals we were not able to establish our control and our own errors were difficult to overcome. The intensity and strength of Kutztown punished us for every mistake made and capitalized with their own scores. The coaching staff is very proud of the performance of every individual and the team overall. Some tough matches won and a single tough match lost. It was an amazing weekend to see the progress made and the teamwork shown on and off the field. There is no doubt that April and May will find all of you playing a high degree of 7s on pitches along the front range and the U.S. Congratulations again to the team for a 5 and 1 record at Las Vegas and a first-time climb to the finals! On behalf of a very proud coaching staff! Cheers, Coach
