Rugby History

The all-new CHSS Rugby Team played their first game this past week against an out-of-town opponent.  Many classes came down to watch the historic match on Patullo Field, unhindered by the rain.  The seasoned Houston team ended up victorious, but provided CHSS with some valuable experience.

Track & Field Success in Prince George

The combined CHSS / PRSS Track & Field team traveled to Prince George last weekend to attend the Zero Meet held at Masich Stadium.  Of the 42 Rupert athletes who attended, 59 individual awards were won, as well as 9 team awards.  Eighteen of these were first place finishes!  Congratulations to all the athletes who represented our school so well.

CHSS Results can be found here.
