We are the Champions!

I've been absent from the Penguin Files lately because I was in Pittsburgh playing rugby with the Northeastern Rugby Union All-Star team. IR and I took a road trip (with our friends Gary and Murry) to the National All Star Championship.

We had our work cut out for us with Pacific our first opponent. The game was close, seesawing back and forth until we put it away in the end 19-10. Then we faced the Midwest for the Championship on Sunday. We kept our momentum from Friday and shut the Midwest out 34-0 to win the National Championship! (photo courtesy of USA Rugby).

It was the National All Star Championship. the territories competing are Northeast, Pacific, Midwest, West, Mid Atlantic, South, and Southern California. but basically the northeast is pretty much the best ever!
