Ruggers in top ten of 32-team meet
For a weekend of fun &
frolic, the Rice Rugby Club
journeyed to the Alamo City
for the annual San Antonio
Seven-a-Side Tournament.
Over 50 teams (including
womens' teams) entered from
Texas and the Southwest.
Sevens is a faster version of
regular rugby, lasting 15
minutes and featuring 7
players per team (hence the
name).
The Rice "A" side consisted
of hardened veterans Mike
Buls, John Kocheevar, Mike
Winchell, Paul Phillips, Asuka
Nakahara, Sam Metcalf, Alan
Rodgers. By a stroke of luck,
Rice drew of the top teams
in the tourney (Houston and
Old San Antonio). Opening
action on a field with ankle
deep water and mud was slow
for the fleet-footed Owls as the
A side dropped a 3-6 decision to
the Strikers. The only Rice
score was a penalty kick off the
golden toe of Alan Rodgers,
who was still wearing parts of
his costume from the Fall of
Rome party from the night
before.
One hour later, Rice was on
the field allowing Dallas B to
score a last minute try to create
a 10-10 final score. Mike Buls
legged in one score and
Kocheevar, with lots of help
from Ragman and Rodgers
scored the other Rice try.
Rodgers was good on a
conversion.
Rice stopped Houston cold
for one half in a very physical
game before allowing two
second half breakaways. The
final, despite a good effort, 0-
12, them.
The first win of the day came
against Fort Worth B, 8-4.
Rodgers, Winchell, and Buls
collaborated on the two trys in
the late afternoon.
The final game of the day
was somewhat of a disaster as
Old San Antonio mauled the
Rice Ruggers. They were good.
Sunday the Rice Ruggers
showed a veteran spirit after
Saturday's five grueling
games.
In culmination of a month of
7's coaching by Tom Turvey
and Mike Winchell (two
veteran English ruggers)
made Rice's final record rank
in the top ten of 32 teams.
Sunday's games marked the
appearance of several new
