By Randall Green for the Kaimin The Jesters and the Mag­ gots--unusual names for teams playing an unusual sport. The sport is rugby, a game of “ele­ gant violence.” A match between UM’s Jesters and the Missoula Mag­ gots Tuesday afternoon was a preview of action slated for the Big Sky Classic Rugby Tour­ nament, which the Jesters are hosting Saturday, OcL 21 at Playfair Park. During the opening min­ utes of the game, Jester Ted Sale paced up and down the sidelines, watching anxiously. “If they win, it will be luck this time,” he said to a team­ mate, referring to the Maggots five-year winning streak against the Jesters. And things started out good for the Jesters. They took an early lead with a field goal in the first 10 minutes of play. But the Maggots came back to tic the score at half-time.
