The Liberty Rugby Conference (LRC) is a collegiate men’s rugby union league that brings together universities primarily from the northeastern United States, including schools in Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Jersey. 

Operating under the umbrella of National Collegiate Rugby (NCR), the conference fields teams across multiple divisions — chiefly D1, D1AA, and D2, with each conference sending teams to NCR's national playoff.

Scares and Breakouts in NCR D1 Matches

At the top of NCR's DI the competition will be fierce this year.

As readers might have noticed, GRR opted last week to put Walsh in as the #1-ranked team in this division, and with that team being idle, some other programs had a chance to make themselves known.
