Today's match was the first of its kind for East Highs 9/10 Rugby Team.  The 9/10 group had only been around for 2 seasons.  Last year the Leopards were beaten in the semi final against West Valley.  This year they would be playing for the Championship.  East and Snow Canyon met a few weeks ago and East won by a final score of 47 to 12.  This game would prove to be different.  The Leopards would start strong and Jadin Afuvai would score first.  Taki Vakalahi would find his way under the posts, something he has done all season.  Josh Parker would score to end the first half.  The Leopards would lead 19 to 12 at the half with Snow Canyon slowly building momentum.  It would be all Snow Canyon in the second half scoring an additional 19 points.  The Leopards would fall in the State Championship game 31 to 19.  This one stung a little but the future of the East Rugby Program is bright and they players have a lot to look forward to in the coming years.
