The Colorado Youth Rugby’s annual Rocky Mountain Classic was a tremendous opportunity for Tigers Rugby to showcase their hard work and commitment to the game of Rugby.

The Tigers knocked off the hottest team in the league, the Ridgeview Academy Rams, with 22-12 victory.

For their second match of the day, the Tigers met with perennial powerhouse Denver East. The final score of this match was 24 -0, however, the Tigers held East to just 5 points by halftime.

With these two matches, the Tigers made their presence known and have high expectations for the remaining league matches.
