Well you might say it wasn't a National Championship because it didn't include a play-in for every region, but the old USA Rugby National HS Championship didn't either. Many regions in America opted out of the final tournament simply because it didn't fit in with their schedule, or was too expensive.

Still, this past weekend's Boys HS National Invitational did provide plenty of fodder for our rankings. Almost all the top teams were there, and they got to play each other, as well.

We might see a few little changes over the course of the end of the spring, but this past weekend put us in the best position to settle the rankings. Here are some of our explanations:

Jesuit came into the NIT at #3, and beat #5, #2 and #1. Easy - they're top now.

Who goes to #2? Well #1 Gonzaga lost a close one to Jesuit, 21-16. But Herriman, who we had ranked #5, almost beat Jesuit. They lost 18-17 on a missed conversion. Then they plowed over Dixon and Charlotte Catholic. Add in the fact that Herriman earlier beat HS Club winners United twice, and we think they have to be #2, despite finishing 5th at the Invitational.

Virtually all men living in the U.S. must register with Selective Service within 30 days of their 18^th birthday. Men who fail to register become ineligible for important opportunities such as student loans, job training programs, citizenship for male immigrants, and driver’s license renewal in most states. In addition, registration is required for employment with the federal government, numerous state and local agencies, and a growing number of private employers. Men who fail to register by age 26 can be PERMANENTLY barred from these opportunities. Learn more, check your status, or register today at www.sss.gov.
