With a decisive 80-12 win over the Reno Zephyrs last weekend, the Chico Men’s Rugby club have secured the top seed in the NCRFU DIII playoffs. They will square up with the south division fourth seed, South Valley, in Manteca this Saturday. Coach John Fox feels they are well prepared and ready for the match this Saturday “I feel confident we will be in control of the south valley match!”

The Mighty Oaks have relied on solid teamwork and athleticism to get them this far in the season. Team President Cheese says there are three key areas that they need to concentrate on going forward “…Desire, Effort and Focus.” While Coach Fox is looking for the defense to continue winning games going into playoffs. “Our defense is where it all starts and I expect to ride that defense deep into the playoffs.”
