On Saturday, April 21st, the Highlander Rugby team took on their most difficult challenge yet: St. Joseph’s Prep. The Highlanders fought tooth and nail to keep the other team back in a harrowing and exciting victory of 11 – 5.
The Highlanders remain undefeated in the 2012 season and are looking forward to their next match against Roman Catholic this Sunday at 2pm on Highland Field.
On Friday, April 20th, SGA traveled once again to the Penguins Hockey match for the playoffs. They sang, cheered, and juggled throughout the evening. The crowd, the hockey team, and the Penguins organization were so impressed that they asked the boys back for another night.
On Saturday, even though SGA’s rugby match was delayed and the boys arrived late, the Penguins gave them a grand entrance. Walking into the arena, the boys were announced, led to their seats ceremoniously, and the entire crowd gave them a standing ovation! SGA immediately began the cheering and singing and helped lead the Penguins to a huge 7 – 2 victory over the Hershey Bears.
