After Saturday's 48 to 5 win over Corning rugby club at the New York State rugby championships this weekend in Utica, Rye High School rugby went on to defeat the Saratoga Mustangs in Sunday's nail biter of a final by the score of 3-0. Sanyo Mascolo scored the game's only points on a penalty kick.

The first ever NY State Division 2 rugby championship win for Rye comes in the team's second year of existence at Rye High.

Congrats to everyone!
