Alums Victorious in Annual Rugby Match

More than 40 alumni and current Staples High school rugby players came together today for the annual alumni rugby match. The alumni squad easily defeated the Staples team. After the game finished all the participants stayed and played an extra 60 minutes of game time. The popularity of the rugby program has flourished under Head Coach David Lyme. Rugby is now the largest contact sport at Staples with approximately 100 players expected to play in the upcoming season. Pictured: current senior Henry Engles with the ball.
