Mongrels post last-minute victory against Meridian

Thursday, April 13, 2017

Jonathan Kaiser, holding the eight man position, runs the ball with protection from scrum half, Austin Tetrault.

With the score tied at 19 with two minutes left on the clock, the Mountain Home Mongrels drove the ball in to take the lead and scored one more try in the final seconds as the local rugby club defeated the Meridian Warriors during a conference match, held Saturday afternoon at Optimist Park.

Meridian's team of high school players scored first, but the Mongrels came back to take the lead, 12-7, at the half.
