Sources - ACRL 15s Conference No More
Multiple sources seem to confirm that the Atlantic Coast Rugby League (ACRL) will not continue as a Men's DI College 15s competition in 2016.
The league, which included teams from NCAA's ACC, has struggled to maintain competitiveness as the top teams, noitably Clemson, have outstripped the others. Occasional forfeits also hampered what was already a relatively short season.
AIC Speeds Past Clemson
American International College shocked Clemson 54-21 in a game that showcased the depth and athleticism of the program.
Clemson Wins ACRL
Clemson clinched the ACRL Saturday with a 53-12 defeat of Virginia Tech to finish the ACRL conference season 6-0.
With the Virginia Tech loss, NC State has clinched 2nd in the conference.
Clemson was led by scrumhalf Ryan Gilroy, who was impressive in keeping the pace of the game high and marshaling the defense.
