Conferences Heat Up in D1 Rugby This Weekend
OK we're getting serious now.
Eleven D1A, NCR D1, and D1AA conferences are in action this week (twelve if you count independent teams as playing conference games, which we probably should) involving 82 teams.
Men's D1 College Games Ramp Up This Weekend
Rugby East is a very tough conference and it seems like every week there's going to be a big game in that conference.
Probably the most interesting matchup this week is Kutztown at St. Bonaventure. While Kutztown has already played a game this season, Bonnies goes right into conference play with only an alumni scrimmage under its belt.
Breakouts Target Big NIRA Weekend
Who is the top team in NIRA D1?
Certainly Sacred Heart is the breakout team of the moment, but they have some challenges ahead.
Men D2 College Games This Weekend
D2 Games really get going now and in fact we have a few that carry some weight.
Below we list the games for the weekend, including some crossovers where the D2 team plays a D1, D1AA, or Small College team. We've also got some all-Small matchups there because they are being played as part of a D2/Small College hybrid league.
But, notable for our rankings:
Men D2 College Games This Week
Over 30 games involve Men's D2 college with six conferences kicking off.
Northern Iowa is in a four-team warmup tournament with DI teams Oklahoma, Colorado State, and Kansas. So that will be challenging.
