IF IT'S MARCH, IF IT'S MUDDY, it must be rugby season in Philadelphia. The Philadelphia-Whitemarsh Rugby Club opened its 2007 Rugby Super League Season Saturday in Fairmount Park with a "friendly" match against PAC (Potomac Athletic Club) of Washington, D.C. The visitors (in red) delivered a message to the home boys in blue and red during two matches when Philadelphia-Whitemarsh was held without a try scored.
That's not a great way to warm up for the season that officially begins next Saturday with a Rugby Super League match against the Division One Champions, the Irish Wolfhounds from Boston. Fittingly, the match will be played on St. Patrick's Day at Widener University's football stadium in Chester . Kickoff for the Super League match is 2 p.m. with the B side curtain raiser match beginning at noon. Come on out and support the home team.
