Hale participated as a player during his undergraduate and graduate years at Penn State, then as head coach while working as an academic counselor in the athletic department. He left this year for a teaching job in England. But as many as four to seven coaches will volunteer their help with the club. The head coach position is a status. We try to absorb the older people in the town to get involved because the alumni is our strength.
Expectations are high for the Ruggers, a club that combines youth with experience.
