Dayton 31 Knoxville 24

September 21, 2007

Yet again the rugby gods have chosen to punish the faithful by robbing us of several players before another big away-game. This time we traveled up to sunny Dayton, Ohio, to take on the flying pigs. My worst fears were realized when we only had 13 players (plus little’ole me) show up at the pitch … a far cry from the 24 or so we’ve had at practice. In a show of true spartan spirit, the boys from Knoxville chose the pipe wrench (playing with 14) over the belt (playing with 14 + help from Dayton) and took to the field. Understandably, chaos ensued. Dayton jumped off to a quick lead due to mistakes and confusion on our part, and we were never able to overtake them. At one point late in the match we had clawed our way back to a two point deficit, despite the loss of Rob W. our fullback. But a late try to Dayton sealed the deal and we lost the match 24 – 31.

March 22, 1998

Bitterly cold and snow on the ground. We travelled light, and the highlight of the match was TH’s request to have a player removed from the pitch. He was promptly satisfied.
