Nashville vs Knoxville- Feb 19th, 2:00pm

Filed under Front Page, Practices, Matches, Tournaments

The Nashville Outlaws will travel to the confines of Possum Park to take on Knoxville in a USA Rugby South Divisional test match. Both teams are coming off wins. Nashville won convincingly over Huntsville and Knoxville edged Memphis  last Saturday.

It has been a  while since both teams were in the same Division and Matrix. Historically, Nashville has won the most games in the series, but Knoxville bettered the Outlaws in Nashville last fall. This should make for one great game- not to mention that (4) of Nashville’s current starters are ex-Possums.

Kickoff is set for 2pm.

On Saturday Knoxville played a very physical Memphis team led by former Possum Greg White. The game looked like it would end in a tie when Knoxville stole a Memphis scrum in the last minutes of play and Brad “Smegal” Meccia picked the ball up and raced 20 meters for the try. A fierce Memphis rally fell just short and the Possums came away with the win 25-20.
