JOSH “TUFFY” REHTMEYER

While quiet in nature, Josh “Tuffy” used his on-field athleticism and natural leadership ability to lead the squad by example during between 1995 – ‘98.  It is ironic that while not the biggest nor the strongest back on the team, he went on to play some of the highest levels of rugby including the Seattle Rugby Club, Tempe Rugby, The Gentlemen of Aspen, as well as Christchurch RFC club in New Zealand. 

More impressive was his dedication to his country as he deployed twice to Iraq and was the rank of Major when he left the Marines in 2014.  He earned All-Marine 15’s and All-Combined Services 7’s accolades.  He currently lives in Elkhorn with his wife, two boys and two dogs.
