Tom Bliss - Oakland Tech

http://www.oaklandwarthogsrfc.com/images/TomBlissPic.JPG

Tom is a student athlete who has done the best job of balancing school effort and attending every rugby practice. He has started off preseason being vocal on the pitch, being a committed player that shows up early & his teammates can count on, and he keeps a good attitude. He always sticks around to clean up the field and put away the lights. Keep up the good work!
