March 2nd -
Washington, Pennsylvania The Washington and Jefferson Rugby Football
Club will be hosting a dinner to honor the memory of their teammate
Matt Puckett. Proceeds from the dinner will benefit the Matt Puckett
Scholarship Fund.
Matt was tragically taken from us in an automobile accident on August
20, 2006.
Matt was a founding member of the Washington and Jefferson Rugby
Football Club and at the time of his graduation, he had played more
minutes for W&J than any other player in the club’s history. Matt
will always be remembered for his dazzling attacking runs, solid
tackling, and tireless work on the field. Most of all, Matt will be
remembered as a great teammate and an even better friend.
A buffet style dinner will be held in his honor at 7:00pm (guests may
arrive at 6:00) on Friday March 2, 2007 at the Washington Golf Club in
Washington, Pennsylvania. The cost of the dinner is $50 per person.
There will be a silent auction, a video presentation, and a cash bar.
Tickets can be
