Western Washington battled in a chippy CRAA D1AA semifinal to beat Millennia Atlantic
This game saw MAU play a very effective game at getting under Western Washington’s skin, while the Vikings probably had the better of the kicking game and field position, but struggled to be consistent.
Iowa State will take on Western Washington in the CRAA D1AA final after both teams won their semifinals Friday at Kuntz Stadium in Indianapolis, and for Iowa State, this was one of their most clinical performances in the last few years.
Rugby fans in the Midwest will hav quite a treat this weekend with nine championship-level college games to be held at Kuntz Stadium in Indianapolis.
We at GRR don’t often just flat-out tell you to go to an event, but you should go to this one. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday there will be hugely entertaining and high-stakes games all at one venue.
