The Buffaloes continue a winning streak this weekend. Final score was 39-13. This puts the Budd Bay men at 10-0 in league matches! Great rugby played by all against ORSU in Oregon. Everyone put forth the best effort and never let up for the entire 80 minutes. Congrats Men!
The Bandits participated in a round robin with the Seattle Mudhens and ORSU this Saturday. The weather was beautiful and the matches were fierce. The Bandits started off the day playing the Mudhens in a blowout match. The Mudhens reported at the social that they had anticipated the Bandits bringing the skills and aggression that shocked them in the fall, thus they had brought thier "A" game. The Bandits lost to the Mudhens 60-0 but that did not stop the Bandits. During the Mudhens v ORSU match, Budd Bay cleared their heads and focused on how to play a good match with ORSU. The Bandits defense killed ORSU in their second match of the day, holding them until the half at a tie score of 5-5. In the second half, ORSU scored once more on the Bandits. Final score ORSU 10-Budd Bay 5. The Bandits then paired up with the Mudhens in a motley match of WA vs OR. This was a great pair up and "Mud Bay" tied the Oregon women 5-5. Overall, the round robin was a great success for all teams involved. There were a handful of injuries sustained, but the Bandits played great Rugby and left the fans and coaches very proud. The Bandits play their last home match of the season on Saturday March 27th against Spokane. Match will be @Rainier Vista. We'll see you there!
Barbarian U-16's beat Seattle 61-5 on Friday night. The game was played under lights at Magnuson Park and the U-16's put on quite a performance. They were clinical in most areas and very unselfish in the way they went about it. Brett Woods scored 4 tries, Ryan Glendenning scored 2, Zach Riley, Nick Lewis, Kylar Anderson, Jacob Durr, and Johnathon Winters all scored tries. Nice work Fellas!
Saturday the U-19'S failed to field 15 players and were handed a lopsided defeat by Rainer.
On Sunday the club hosted a U-14 Jamboree with almost 50 kids under the age of 14 from Budd Bay, Seattle, Rainier, Kent and Yelm. It was an awesome day with great talent on display!
