In the pink

News reaches me of the Eighth annual Boston women's rugby sevens tournament. One team, called The Pink Dresses, played in, well, pink dresses. The competition was won by a team called the Marys, all of whom were named, well, Mary. The top player was their goalkicker, the not inaptly named Mary Indelicato.
