Week 4 of Rugby

Three more wins makes us 12-1 for the season!  We scored a total of 109 points!  To the other three teams 27.  Yes it is easy to say that our team is dominating the entire league.  The first game was 36-15 with Ben scoring 3 Trying and kicking 3 conversions and David scoring 1 Try.  David is funny because he always scores in the first game and then is done.   The next game was 32-7 with Ben scoring 3 Trys and only kicking 1 conversion.  The next game was against our old team and it was freezing cold by this time and Ben still made 2 Trys and 3 conversions.  So Ben's total for the night was 54 points, exactly double the points of all three teams put together.  The very last play of the game he got a break away and the other kid on our team named David who is a 6th grader and new to the sport was trailing him so right before he crossed the line he passed it back to him so he could score.  It was great.  It made me proud to see him do that.  I was grateful that he thought of this kid because I knew that he hadn't scored yet this season and we only have two weeks left.  We have had the coldest week so far this winter.  It's been really weird.  But Ben was glad that he could wear his new Rhino Rugby parka!  He also said at one point between games while he was sitting by us as he noticed the line out rope shake that it was so cold that even that was shivering.
