NIRA has selected its all-NIRA teams in each division.
The National Intercollegiate Rugby Association is the competition for NCAA-varsity women's college teams.
DI champions Harvard have si players on the All-DI 1st team and another five on the 2nd team. They include the backline architects of Harvard's championship run in finals MVP Brogan Mior, center Tiahna Padilla, and try-scoring wing Lennox London.
Despite their dominance, DII winners Davenport "only" put five players on the all-DII side but two of them are the power halfback combo of Ashley Cowdrey and Aubrey Crist.
Bowdoin, similarly, were the empresses of DIII, and the Polar Bears put nine players on the All-DIII team.
