Women's College Player of the Week: Beth Rose

Penn State prop Beth Rose stood out among the field, and for the reasons one might not expect.
MARC's Opening Weekend Round-up
The Mid-Atlantic conference (MARC) got underway last weekend and saw six DII women’s colleges kick off their competitive seasons.
Eight Varsity Programs Team Up
Eight colleges with varsity rugby programs have banded together to form the National Collegiate Varsity Women’s Rugby Association.
Quinnipiac Trounces Army
When the Quinnipiac Women traveled to Marietta, Ga., for its season-opener against Life University, the 34-19 win proved difficult to interpret.

Exciting Start for Lindenwood Women
The Lindenwood University women's team is in the mist of the change. The DI program is NOT moving to DII (contrary to a previous report) but has welcomed a new full-time coach – Billy Nicholas from the Bronx – who only accepted the position two weeks ago. The Missouri side has good infrastructure, however, and Director of Rugby JD Stephenson has been leading the transition.
