The annual Tatunka 7’s rugby tournament hosted by Budd Bay Rugby kicks off the 7s season in the Pacific Northwest. The tournament will feature three divisions – men’s competitive, women’s open and men’s open – and last year featured 22 teams in a double elimination tournament. The Tatunka 7s tourney used to accompany Super Saturday, the celebration on Evergreen’s campus the day after graduation but has stood on it’s own since the funding for Super Saturday was cut.

The season at South Sound Speedway is underway despite the weather and it looks like racing should be on tonight. Tickets are $16 for adults, $14 for teenagers, seniors and military, $5 for kids 6-12 and free for the little ones.
Today (9/29): Rams squared; Racing season wraps
Surprisingly slow day of sports in the South Sound but Saturday high school football and the last day of racing saves the day.
Three teams remain undefeated in 3A Narrows League play coming into today. Timberline, Shelton and North Thurston sit atop the league at 2-0 so tonight’s game at South Sound Stadium between the Rams and the other Rams of Wilson is an opportunity to split from the pack, at least for one week. North Thurston has been phenomenal this season allowing just 42 points through four games.
Wilson started the season 2-0 and hopes were high that their senior led team were going to turn around a struggling program. But the Rams entered a tough stretch to start league play and were handled by Shelton two weeks ago and Timberline last week to fall to 2-2 overall and 0-2 in league.
Kickoff at South Sound Stadium is scheduled for 7:00 PM. You can stream the game live on the Eli Sports Network
And racing season at South Sound Speedway wraps up tonight with Bump To Pass, Mini Stocks, Hobby Stocks and Bumblebees. Tickets tonight are $12 for adults, $10 for teens, seniors and military and $5 for kids 6-12. Qualifying begins at 5:00 PM and racing starts at 6:30.
