U-19 v. Provo / 107-0
Highland’s U19’s took on first-year Provo in a game which was rescheduled one day later than originally scheduled. The game took place at Murray Rugby Stadium, under beautiful conditions. Highland started off quickly, with Highland putting in a try in the first minute. Provo, who was well-coached and had some success against us in the lineout early with some creative movement, couldn’t really manage to sustain anything over more than a phase or two. Standouts on the day included wing Josh Anderson, who raced to a hat trick of tries which included a nice pickup off of a kick ahead, scrumhalf Sean Harwood, and #10 Danny Tuai in the backs. In the forwards, the front row of DJ Ferris, Levi Card, and Moises Peraza all ran and rucked hard, and break Ara Elkington was like an 8th back in open play. The boys did some much-needed conditioning on the field following the game, showing a refusal to be satisfied with the status quo and realizing that just being happy with the 107-0 victory is not enough – we must continue to get better.
