NM Brujos look toward Atomic Sisters' 10s tournament this weekend in their Fall finale after falling to Santos last Saturday. AYRU Rookie Rugby every Saturday in November leading up to Turkey Touch.
Not quite the Fall finish the Brujos had in mind. After a strong start to the Fall season that even saw the Brujos bring home a piece of hardware after their win at the High Desert Classic earlier in the month, the New Mexico Brujos instead lost their second straight Fall Union match last Saturday behind a furious second half rally by the visiting Santa Fe Santos. After leading 24 to 19 at the half the Brujos only managed one more try in the second half compared to 36 second half points from the Santos, 15 of them on penalty kicks. The loss leaves the NM Brujos with some work to do when they resume Union play next Spring, but as they have proven in the past, this squad is more than up to the task.
Next up for the Brujos is their Fall finale as they participate in the Atomic Sister's 10 Tournament this Saturday, November 9th, followed by the Phantom of the Pitch Masquerade Ball that evening. With regional men's and women's teams and even the possibility of snow, this tournament should serve as a great farewell to the Fall rugby season! The tournament will also feature a beer garden, food trucks, and special events.
Then take a lil' break, get dressed up, and come out to the formal masquerade! DJ, drinks, and dancing all night at the fabulous Clyde Hotel.
Call the Clyde and book with the rugby block so you can stay right where the dance is happening! You’ll be wishing you were there if you book elsewhere. This is an event you won't want to miss!
