    "We started slow but after 10 minutes we found our groove and never looked back," said Endicott club men's rugby head coach Dave Kenkel. "I want to thank all the fans that showed up to support! The Man of the Match was Orion Mann (Kalispell, Mont.). He scored five tries and applied constant defensive pressure!!"

    WHAT'S NEXT
