RRRC SEMI-FINALS: HURT 25, Dallas Reds 13

RRRC CHAMPIONSHIP: HURT 25, Little Rock Stormers 43

After defeating the Dallas Red in the Red River Rugby Conference Semi-finals, HURT battled Little Rock for the Championship. Unfortunately, HURT’s pursuit for a conference championship fell short. This loss was a tough one to swallow. However, HURT should be proud of being a top 16 D2 club in the nation, an undefeated regular-season and a 4th consecutive South Division title. The 2015-16 season is one to remember.

Good luck to the Little Rock Stormers as they continue on to the national championships.

Special thanks:

• Coaches of HURT and the Henchmen, Rob Potter and Dan Green.
• HURT major sponsor: Cyrus Proximity
• Henchmen major sponsor: Fluid Sealing Products

The success of the Houston United Rugby Team is possible because of all your hard work, dedication, and contributions. Cheers.

RRRC SEMI-FINALS: Henchmen 5, Austin Blacks 45

The Henchmen suffer their first loss to an experienced and disciplined Austin Blacks (D3) in the RRRC semi-finals in Austin, TX. Although the year did not end the way the Henchmen wanted, going undefeated and winning the South Division title in the team’s inaugural season is something to be tremendously proud of. If the Henchmen can accomplish all those things in its first year, imagine what the team can do in the years to come. Great season, Henchmen!

 

The playoff schedule for the RRRC Championships have been announced. The semi-finals will take place on May 7th and the Championship on May 8th. Check the TRU Website for further details.
