Highland 104 - Davis 0

I am sure that Highland walked off the field extremely proud of themselves for setting this high scoring record. What a fine feat, breaking the triple digit scoring barrier..........just kidding!

Great for the ego and a fat head. Thank you Highland for redefining and bringing a whole new meaning to piling it on and running up the score.

I would say that the true heroes of this game are the players and coaches of Davis who stayed on the field to the last whistle, whilst weathering this grotesque, gladiator like display of.................................what........I can even use the word sport.

A new low for sportsmanship and a sad milestone for high school rugby.

No thought of the long term impact that this, gladiator approach to sports, has on other teams, their players, future growth etc. It is easy to be a gladiator for Rome with a 1000 soldiers watching your back.

Let's help grow the sport of rugby and encourage other young players to embrace this amazing sport......................................by smashing and grinding their faces into the dirt without mercy....................50, 60, 70 80, 90, 100 points. Where does it end?

Lets give Highland several trophies for their myopic statistical accomplishments :
  • the most points scored in a game
  • the most points scored in a season
  • the most games scoring 50 or more points
  • the most successful team at discouraging others from playing rugby
Unfortunately I think they might like it.

Its interesting that everyone complains about kiwis and how unfair we are. When our first varsity played you the starters stayed in for the the first ten minutes of the game. Five minutes into the second half our team playing against you was our freshman and sophomore team. I wonder why we could still score against you at will? Its because we practice harder, we have more heart, determination, and courage than any other team. So if you dont want your varsity to be scored on so badly by freshman you should stop complaining and probably step up your game. stop being a baby

you don't have more heart just more kiwi import players. Your team is average without the boys from down under. Sad but true

Ok so me the rosters for every year that highland has won a national title. I'm asking you this to back up what you say because it seems to me that you shoot your mouth off and ask questions later.
