It was a huge weekend in Men’s DII college rugby, and we found some players who went above and beyond; here is this week’s Gamebreakers:
You might have seen the video of Eric Sweeney playing scrumhalf for Towson University, taking the ball from the back of the scrum, running weakside and popping a kick over the top for a try against Georgetown.
Here’s a look at some of the players in DIA, DIAA, and ACRC rugby who had good games this past weekend.
Jonah Lamothe
The freshman Clemson back was something of a revelation in the Tigers’ defeat of NC State with two tries.
It’s always fun to give some notice to a player who isn’t the high-profile one on the team.
Kutztown University’s victory over Army was certainly an opportunity to notice the well-known players, such as Robert Stortz, Wes Hartmann, Jonathan Sage. But instead let’s look at Nick Hohlt.
Who were our gamebreakers this week? It's pretty front-row-heavy this week. Even one of our backs is actually a hooker.
Colin Thul
The Tennessee prop is the captain of the Volunteers and was the key to Tennessee controlling the scrums in an hugely important 32-10 victory over Georgia.
