Fabio Ongaro
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fabio Ongaro (born 23 September 1977 in Venice) is an Italian rugby union footballer. He plays for Saracens.
Although he now plays as a hooker, he played in the Italian youth teams as a flanker.
Ongaro first appeared on the international scene in 2000 when he made his Azzurri debut against Canada in Rovigo. Ongaro played every match for Italy in the 2003 World Cup and scored the crucial try that helped beat Scotland 20-14 in Rome in the 2004 RBS 6 Nations. His rise to the top peaked in November 2004 when he was named as Italy captain in place of the injured Marco Bortolami.
