Liberty Rugby Conference (LRC)

NCR D1AA Playoff Teams Decided

Texas A&M defeated Sam Houston State 34-24 to win the Lonestar Conference, but both of those teams are already in the NCR playoffs.

The victory for Texas A&M, however, ensured them a week off before the quarterfinals on November 22.

Babson had come in having upset previously unbeaten Northeastern, a team that had defeated BC. But that's why they play the game. Boston College's attack has been building nicely and they opened up an early lead.

Babson Did What?

Probably the biggest head-turner result in D1AA over the weekend was Babson eking out a 48-47 win over Northeastern in the Liberty Conference semifinals.

Iona Shocks Siena in Liberty Nailbiter

In a somewhat surprising result Iona logged their first conference victory of the season, holding off Siena 30-29 on Alumni Weekend at Iona.

The day was also the day for announcing inductions into the Iona Rugby Hall of Fame, and that was a big event in and of itself. However, Iona still came into the game underdogs.
