Rugby Cats travel to Notre Dame Cathedral

The Rugby ‘Cats started off busy Sunday with a trip to Notre Dame Cathedral.

After a long ride on the metro, the team gathered on the banks of the La Seine River, eager to see the Cathedral. Although Mass was going on inside, we climbed to the top of the Cathedral where we saw a beautiful view of Paris.

Senior Chris Fedor claimed that this was his favorite part of the trip so far, as he was amazed by the gothic architecture of the Cathedral.

After visiting Notre Dame Cathedral, Coach Dan Arbeznik '00 led us on a walking tour of the Latin Quarter, in which we saw the oldest clock and oldest tree in all of Paris. After Coach’s tour concluded, the team was given time to explore the area on our own.

A few hours later, the team boarded the metro and we headed to a professional match between Stade Francais Paris and RC Toulonnais.

The stadium was packed and the team was amazed with the atmosphere of the game as Stade Francais Paris pulled out a 17-11 victory in a hard fought game.

Overall, today was an action packed Sunday that no one will forget!
