Rugby
The San Clemente Triton Rugby Club is gaining momentum following its first full season of competition. The club, which was founded by several San Clemente High School student-athletes this year, had more than 40 players suit up in 2015 and reached another important landmark this offseason.
Senior rugby player Hayden Malone was offered a scholarship to play rugby for Grand Canyon University. Malone is the club’s first-ever player to be offered a collegiate scholarship.
The San Clemente Triton Rugby Club had a successful first season. The varsity team compiled a 3-1-1 overall record in its inaugural year and the junior varsity team went a perfect 8-0 on the season.
Snowboarding
San Clemente native Hailey Langland continued her successful run through the 2015-2016 professional snowboarding season with an eighth-place finish in the women’s slopestyle event at the Burton US Open Snowboarding Championships in Vail, Colo. on March 4.
Langland, a 15-year-old who won a bronze medal in slopestyle at the X Games in Aspen in January, posted a score of 56.05 going up against the world’s top snowboarders.
Langland was named this year’s Transworld Snowboarding Riders’ Poll 17 Women’s Rookie of the Year.
