Winning a line-out

MIT Rugby Team


A lineout in rugby is something like a jump ball in basketball: the object is to determine possession by having each team "jump" for the ball. The difference between rugby and basketball is that in rugby you're allowed to lift players into the air. I'm lucky enough to get to be one of the players they lift; in this picture, I'm fighting for the ball against a member of the other team (in black). This time at least, we seem to be winning... yay!
