Iona's on a roll. In a game played ( 4-9) @home against Loyola. A quality team by all standards, proved to be no match for the boys from North Ave. Iona won the "A" game 44-10 and the "B" game 30-0. Iona will be taking part in the east coast's biggest Rugby tourney next wked in Rhode Island. "The Beast of the East". Good luck guys!!!!

Rugby held it's annual alumni game followed by a banquet. The old-boys still have some step in their game. Congratulations to Hall of Fame inductees, Tony Foley, John Muldune & Dave McCabe for carrying on this great Iona tradition. Big thank-you to Brother Durning & Brother Sullo for their support. This wraps up a very successful 2010-11 season. Cumulative record was 20-2. 10 seniors will be joining the alumni squad next year.We wish them luck and gratitude for their role in raising Gael Rugby to it's current level. Welcome to the 7 incoming freshmen who have been playing this game in their high schools. New members are always welcome. See you on the pitch!
