Following SJU RFC's 55-0 season-ending victory over East Stroudsburg University, the first annual presentation of the Founder's and Hirsch Cups took place. Team Founder Mr. Hugh O'Neil '65 presented the Founder's Cup to the Backline MVP. This year's recipient is Fullback Matthew Borochaner '11. In addition, Rosemont College President Dr. Sharon Hirsh, wife of the late Neil Hirsh '65, and her son Michael Hirsh presented the Hirsh Cup to the Forwards MVP. This year's recipient is Lock/8-man Sean Blom '10. Also in attendance to present the cup was SJU Athletic Director Mr. Don Dijulia. The trophies will have the players' names engraved on them and will be kept in the SJU Athletics trophy case in the newly-renovated Hagan Arena. Attached are photos of the presentation.
In addition, the next SJU Rugby captains were announced. The captains for the 2010-2011 season will be Center Yianni O'Hara '11 and Flanker Chris Matarangas '12. We look forward to seeing their leadership skills continue to blossom as they lead SJU RFC on to more great things.
