How Playoffs Could Look in DII
It’s playoff speculation time.
Here’s a look at what we might see in the Men’s DII College playoffs:
Pittsburgh Brackets
(two groups of four teams will play here)
Rugby Northeast
MARC
New England Wide
Upstate NY
NECRC
Colonial Coast
WIIL
At least one at-large
Tri-State Playoffs Set
The regular season is done in the Tri-State Men's DII Conference, and the playoff matchups are set.
The two most interesting results of the final weekend came in the Tri-State North, where 4-0 Sacred Heart played 3-1 RPI, the defending conference champs, and 3-1 Siena took on 1-3 Union.
Hartford, CGA, Leading NEWCRC Pack
Hartford and Coast Guard both won big, setting up a likely all-marbles clash in two weeks in the New England Wide Conference.
Coast Guard ran out to a 43-7 halftime lead over Quinnipiac and cruised to a 69-7 win.
NC State Over VMI in Cardinals
NC State edged VMI 35-27 Saturday in a clash of the two undefeated teams in the Cardinals Men’s DII conference.
The result of the game is that NC State will go into the playoffs with the #1 seed, but it’s also likely that these two teams will meet in the conference final.
