A week after losing its home opener, the Gentlemen of Aspen Rugby Club made sure to remind its upcoming Mountain League opponents that it’ll still be a difficult test after a 52-31 win on Saturday over the Denver Barbarians on the pitch at Wagner Park in downtown Aspen.
The Barbarians had played in the 2022 national championships through USA Club Rugby at the end of May, losing 35-24 to Charlotte in the men’s Division II final.
“Very happy with that. Especially after last week. We had quite a poor week last week, but that was a really good performance,” Gents coach and player Ben Mitchell said. “They are one of the better club teams in the country. They just came off the back of a national championship final, so really happy with that result.”
