RIO DE JANEIRO – There is a game that kids used to play, a game with a name so politically and otherwise incorrect that it must be referred to here as Kill The Guy With The Ball.
Garrett Bender played that game as a kid, and loved it. The ball gets tossed to one player and everyone else tries to catch and pummel him to the ground. It’s closer to hazing than sport, but then, sometimes so is rugby.
The former Huskies Football player will be with the Rugby 7s squad as they battle Argentina 1 p.m. CDT today.
