Sunday - "Take Me Home"...

8am Sunday morning - dry and sunny! The Highlanders boarded the bus to head homewards to Chapel Hill.
En route in Western PA, Coach Todd pointed out the house where his father had grown up. We headed southwards into West virginia, (relieved that we were going to be passing Washington PA, rather than DC!)
After a lunch stop in Summersville, and after their successful debut the previous evening as a Male voice Choir, the boys started their team rehearsals for "Rugby Anthem Idol".
We later stopped at the New River Bridge overlook in West Virginia.....


....and the squad launched into their favorite John Denver song....

Moments after we finished watching the 1972 Barbarians vs. All Blacks ("Greatest Ever Rugby Game"), we pulled into Cedar Falls

One last team chant, and farewell.


Thank you Highlanders Coaches and Players for a tremendous end to a remarkable season.
