Player Rankings: Top Backs From HS Nationals
Player Rankings: Top Backs From HS Nationals
FloRugby ranks the top backs from the 2017 Boys HS Rugby National Championships.
FloRugby's top backs from High School Nationals were chosen from about 200 players who suited up for their teams' backlines.
As with the forwards, we chose not to shift any players around. If a player seemed more suited to center but played flyhalf, we judged him as a flyhalf. In fact, that's a good example, because Isaac Good looks to project as an excellent center. However, he played as a flyhalf for Brownsburg and was pretty darned good there, regardless.
These are our picks and our picks alone. See the links for video interviews with some of the players.
