A big, powerful and highly skilled Rugby team from the Business School romped over the Harvard Rugby Club to the tune of 26-0 yesterday afternoon on Soldier's Field.
The Businessmen, whose line (roughly equivalent to the line in football) averages near 220 pounds, haven't lost a game in two years and after watching yesterday's game it wasn't hard to see why.
The B School dominated play from the first. In the scrum (a sort of push-of-war) they consistently out-shoved the Crimson to get possession of the ball. In the line in (similar to basketball's jump ball, but with the entire of lines of both teams participating), the B-School also prevailed.
In the first half, the B-School's Harvey Chapman and Brad Freeman both scored tries (similar to touchdowns and worth three points) and John Curry converted them both, for two points each.
In the second half Freeman got another try, Tom Stephenson scored and Tony Cox, faking and running inside, brought in two more for the B-School. Curry made two of the conversions for a score of 26-0.
