For any Old Maroon members who have wished there were more matches to play as an Old Maroon squad, you might be getting your wish. Nothing is official yet, and I don’t speak for Old Maroon or the RRRC, but the collegiate side of the RRRC is thinking about putting together some old boy matches!
You can read more about this in my post over at “Maroon and White Rugby.“

Old Maroon @ Space City 7s – 8/15/2015
With a core group of 3 – 4 players and blistering heat, the squad was blessed with Alumni supplemental players who were committed to their respective Men’s teams. The untrained crew tore through Alamo City, scoring 6 – 7 tries in the first half alone, before overcoming a slow start to defeat Bay Area.
At 2 – 0, the third match v. Houston’s H.U.R.T. proved more difficult. After a red card in the first half left the Aggies with 6 players to field for the remainder of the game, they dug in and were up 21 – 19 with seconds left on the clock. Unfortunately, the crew couldn’t hold on and H.U.R.T. dotted down at full time to win the game 24-21 to smash the Aggies hopes for Undefeated pool play.
At 2 – 1 , the Aggies were seeded in the Top 4 bracket and were playing for money; eagerly anticipating Houston’s Colt .45s, but it was not to be. Weather rolled in and cancelled the remainder of the tournament leaving the top 4 teams (Colt .45s, H.U.R.T., Lonestar, and Old Maroon) tied for 1st. It was Old Maroon’s most competitive showing of the Summer.
