This year, the Pelham varsity rugby team eagerly looks forward to another shot at the NY State Championship title, which was last attained in 2016. Led by captain Nick Lappanese, so far the team is undefeated, holding a record of 2-0. Next, they face the Harvey School on April 11.

“We have a really strong team this season,” junior Philip Dulock said. “We’re hoping to make a big comeback. I really believe that we will.”
