Championship Match
DSHA over Vernon 27-0
DSHA over Vernon 27-0
In a battle of Nationally Ranked teams, Divine Savior Holy Angels (#1 National) defeated the Vernon Harlequins (#3 National). One can only hope that with the strong performance of these two clubs and the rise in strength and depth of all the Wisconsin High School teams that we're setting the stage for more of Wisconsin's fantastic High School Girls programs to participate in the National Championships. Maybe we'll even see an All-Wisconsin National Final?
3rd Place Match
Catholic Memorial 22 over Muskego 15
Catholic Memorial 22 over Muskego 15
Catholic Memorial - a relatively new team to the Wisconsin High School Girls League - has to be proud of their strong finish in the Wisconsin Tournament. The Muskego Girls should also be proud of their fourth place finish which is one of the best results their club has posted in several season. Both clubs should be very proud of their accomplishments this year.
5th Place Match
Brookfield 40 over Kettle Moraine 10

Both teams showed fine form and tremendous competitive desire. As noted on the Wisconsin U-19 Girls Rugby Blog, "every team played with pride and determination" and these teams were no exception.
7th Place Match
Oak Creek 20 over Northshore 10
Oak Creek 20 over Northshore 10
Congratulations to upstart club Oak Creek with their fine performance this fall. We extend our best wishes to both clubs and congratulate Northshore on their successful acquisition of new coach Kathrine Brennan as Coach Katie Ehr is retiring.
The team was chosen by a group of neutral evaluators on the final day of competition. The evaluators are also quick to acknowledge that some excellent players were unavailable for selection due to injury or an absence of qualifying for the competition.
