Meridian High School claimed the 2020 West Ada 7s Championship last month but the Warriors weren’t the only ones honored at the end of the season. Rugby Idaho does a great job of highlighting the top performances from across the league, in both the JV and varsity competitions.
Rugby Idaho named first and second all-conference teams as well as honorable mentions. The league coaches also voted for six different Player of the Year awards, and in addition to having first-hand knowledge of all the players, they could also reference the following season-end stats as compiled by Rugby Idaho:
