Ruggerfest Wrap-up

April 6, 2011

The St. Louis tourney came and went. Most of us laughed, and Kenny cried. Overall the trip was a good time. The impalas entered the social tournament missing a lot of its key players. And defiantly missed Butts in the boring city of St. Louis. But players stepped up and some good rugby was played. The impalas lost their first two games against the St. Louis Royals and Mizzu U. These games were definitely lost due to the fact that the team agreed to let Kenny try and coach during his blackout stint. But he bought us all shots so it was worth it. Saturday night was an overall success and Bluff bought Geno a drink, what a good man. Going in to the second day we faced the Sunday Morning Rugby team. The Sunday Morning team was very intimidating and big, but the not so sober team was lead out by captain Geno without any fear and ready for a win. Psycho Zach scored a huge try that was followed up by a huge and game-changing try by Super Sub Mike Peterson, who trucked about 8 players on route to a 5 yard run to put the game away. It was truly beautiful. Rat was finally able to hold on to a few balls and ran in a couple tries after the game was out of reach.
