Snake River Rugby

In another dominant showing, Snake River came out strong and finished in similar Snake River fashion. A final score of 62 – 0 put an exclamation point on a hard fought and well played PNRFU season. The Snakes will continue their postseason run on April 21st in Portland during Pacifc Coast playoffs.

The Snakes are headed to Seattle for the PNRFU playoffs this weekend. It’s a one and done tournament which pits Snake River vs The Rovers in the 2nd match on Saturday. The winner of that match moves on to play the winner of Tsunami vs. ORSU on Sunday for the PNRFU title. It’s a long way to Seattle but make sure to support your Snakes in any way that you can!

Just a quick bracket to simplify questions about who will be playing who during the PNRFU Playoffs.

After a very rainy and muddy 80 minutes, Snake River notched another win for the season again the Eastside Axemen. Some very tricky backs play and one assist from a goal post put the final score at 54 – 13 Snake River. Good things.

The Snakes are back in Boise this weekend for a match against Tacoma on Saturday at Willow Lane. Tell your friends and come support some top notch Idaho rugby.

Due to the lovely Idaho weather we have had recently, the shotgun start for the Snake River Classic Golf Tournament has been pushed back until 12:00 pm. This will give the greens a bit more time to dry off from Thursday’s snowstorm. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

The Snakes were out for a bit of redemption Saturday and they got it with a very convincing 56 – 17 win over the Portland Pigs. After the Portland game the second side snakes took the field against hometown rival The Boise Crimson Lions. The Killer B’s proved to much for the Lions and came out with the second Snake River win of the day. We would like to thank everyone who braved the cold and made it out to support all the teams that played Saturday.
