Big Wins for Bloomsburg, Villanova in the MARC
Bloomsburg laid down a bit of a marker this weekend, beating rivals Bucknell to perhaps stake their claim as one of the top Men’s DII college teams in the MARC.
Bloomsburg took the game 26-17 in a game that was a battle through all 80 minutes.
IUP Survives Early Scare, Pulls Away from Miami
Top-ranked DII team IUP defeated in-conference rival Miami of Ohio in fairly convincing fashion Friday night, taking the game 54-17.
IUP's vaunted defense was a little humbled early on as some shifty running and quick ball put Miami over for a converted try before seven minutes were up.

Depth and Defense Drives Strong UVM Start
Turning heads this past week in Men's DII college rugby was University of Vermont, which dismissed a very capable UMass Lowell side 38-0.
No one doubts that the New England Wide Collegiate Rugby Conference is a difficult conference, so to win a game by that margin (the two teams tied in their match last year) is definitely worth a closer look.
Big Results for Loyola, UNI in Great Midwest
Loyola of Chicago improved to 2-0 with yet another fairly comfortable win, beating Illinois State 50-15.
