section::::mythology.:greatest warrior of troy.:duel with protesilaus.









































in the "iliad", hector's exploits in the war prior to the events of the book are recapitulated. he had fought the greek champion protesilaus in single combat at the start of the war and killed him. a prophecy had stated that the first greek to land on trojan soil would die. thus, protesilaus, ajax, and odysseus would not land. finally, odysseus threw his shield out and landed on that, and protesilaus jumped next from his own ship. in the ensuing fight, hector killed him, fulfilling the prophecy.

the trojans rugby football club began as one of the first three high school rugby teams in georgia, in 2005. to create these teams the coaches got together and used the graduate thesis, "the bryant model." this graduate thesis was written by phillip c. bryant, mba, to provide a manual to starting a high school rugby club. after the first year the trojans rugby football club had earned a state championship title for beating pope high school's team 23-19. by the next season in 2006, the georgia high school rugby association had created two divisions due to the increase in teams. the trojan rugby football club was placed in the cobb county division along with the pope high school, the sequoyah high school, and the campbell high school rugby football clubs. in the 2006 season, the trojan rugby football club lost all of their games to the other teams in the cobb county division. the club entered the 2007 season with growing numbers of new competition and notable performance. at the season's end the trojans rugby football club had an 11-1 record with the one loss coming from a defeat in the southeast tournament, by the rummel raiders rugby club of new orleans, louisiana. the club earned a second state championship title after defeating the alpharetta phoenix rugby football club, and participated in its first southeast tournament. in 2008, the club added to their success with yet another state championship title and traveled to nashville, tennessee to play in the 2008 southeast tournament. the state championship match was won in over time against the alpharetta phoenix rugby football club with a final score of 17-15. for the second year in a row, the trojans finished with an 11-1 record, only losing in the southeast championship final match to the jesuit high school rugby club from new orleans, louisiana. the 2009 and 2010 carried on their winning traditions by finishing those seasons undefeated in state play, due to phoenix playing illegal players who were over the age limits during the 2009 and 2010 state title games. in the 2010 season, the trojans passed up the opportunity to play for the southeast title and allowed phoenix to go in their place, phoenix eventually moved to nationals. in 2011 the trojans again took the georgia rugby state champion title from alpharetta phoenix. the trojan rugby football club ended their 2011 spring regular season 8-0 and beat phoenix club 55-14 in the state championship match at walton high school. the trojans attended the southeast championship in sanford, florida the weekend of april 30, 2011. out of all of the teams attending, the trojans were seated first overall for the tournament. the morning of saturday, april 30 the trojans won their first match against brother martin, from louisiana, 27-0. later that day the trojans suffered their first loss of 2011 against raleigh rattlesnakes, from north carolina, 12-26. on sunday the trojans lost their final match to the tampa barbarians, from florida, 5-18, earning themselves the sixth-place position of the tournament. in 2016, the trojans combined with local pope and walton high school rugby teams to form "east cobb rugby club".
