Congratulations and thank you to everyone who worked the Manhattan Beach Town Fair. Both Saturday and Sunday went great, we ran the High Striker for both adults and kids and it was a blast for all involved, and we also sold some of our brand new t-shirts, thanks to Ashley. George, Nate, and Rory gave it their all in those one armed swings putting the rest of us to shame.
Congratulations to the LA Rugby squad that made it up to San Luis Obispo for the Tri-Tip 7's tournament and came back with hardware, the mighty "not quite 4th place" spoon! Off to a great start in the first game against UC Davis going up by a couple of try's but due to a couple of mishaps late in the second half UC Davis ended up on top. LARC had a great showing against the Cal Poly team showing dominance with both their starters and the bench players in this match and bringing back their confidence with a win. After a long delay and some schedule confusion LARC was set to play UCLA who they had trouble getting the ball to the outside and out of their own end of the field, and unfortunately dropped that game. With a forfeit in the first round of the playoffs South Valley was the opponent in a very well matched championship game. LARC let one in early, but quickly returned the favor with a couple of try's to go up on SV. It was back and fourth most of the second half but LARC prevailed. A fund day had by all, ending with some great beer and some amazing BBQ.
