With the news that the CRAA Fall Classic is back, hosting, in part, the Women's D1 CRAA fall final, let's take a look at who might be there.
In fact, the chase to a place in Charlotte seems to have come down to four teams—UConn, Northeastern, Air Force, and Colorado Mesa.
CRAA Fall Classic Comes to Memorial Stadium in Charlotte
UConn and Northeastern will be playing each other this coming weekend in Hartford, Conn.
Both teams are 3-0 in conference play so far, and neither had been especially challenged, with the closes game being Northeastern's 34-point win over UMass. Against common opponents they are both, of course, 2-0, with UConn having outscored opponents 86-14, and Northeastern outscoring those same two teams 139-24.
The Huskies of UConn are led by Keisha Durden, who has 10 tires in those three games, and Anna Griffiths, who has scored five. Hannah Wilker and Emily Minkler lead the Huskies of Northeastern with five apiece. In short, these two teams are well ahead of the rest in Rugby Northeast, and this weekend's clash will say a lot about who might make the CRAA final.
