Quinnipiac Drops Rugby as a Women's Varsity Sport
Quinnipiac University has announced that it will discontinue women's rugby as a NCAA varsity spot, and will instead add men's distance running to their list of spots.
This announcement comes as a blow in part because Quinnipiac was among the first NCAA programs and Head Coach Rebecca Carlson has been at the forefront of pushing for full NCAA for women's rugby.
