Second Half Comeback Powers Men’s Rugby Past Utah

SALT LAKE CITY, UT - The Army West Point men's rugby team erases a 21-12 halftime deficit to upset the fifth-ranked Utes of Utah, 29-26, Saturday afternoon. Army scored twice in nine minutes in the middle of the first half, starting with vice-captain Jake Banarhall erasing the goose egg in the 21st minute. The reigning D1A Rugby Player of the Week Luke Heun would add to the first-half scoring in the 30th minute with a conversion coming from Andrew Borer, his first of two in the match. "I'm very proud of this team," said head coach Matt Sherman. "Today we put in a fully committed effort after a day of rest against a very good team on the road. Every player gave the full measure. The best part is we can still be far more accurate in our execution, which we will need against Navy next week." Read More
