The Black Planet hit by three meteorites (losses) today

The Highland Sophomore team was beaten by the United Sophomore team 37 to 32. A tough and very good game.

The Highland Varsity team was beaten by the Snow Canyon Warriors (St George) single school team 11 to 7 in Salt Lake.

And DC Rugby beat the Highland Sophomore A squad for the second time this season 17 - 7. Three weeks ago DC Rugby beat the same squad 42-17.

Highland showing they are like the rest of the teams in the league. Can be beaten on any given Saturday.

The 100+ to zero scores are sad anomalies of first year teams playing Highlands U-19 juggernaut. There is no meaningful or positive purpose to these games other than the 100-0 scores look pretty in the win column.The BIG W! It destroys the spirit and will of the other players, all new to the game.

Why do we allow this to continue?

Since Highland decimated Dixie 107-0 the team has been reduced to 9 players and may not make it through the season.

Who's conscience is bothered by this policy and practice? How do you sleep at night?
