GRR: CRC 7s
Ego, ignorance, bias – whatever the root, every female rugby player has dealt with some level of inequitable treatment in her sport. The acknowledgement of that shared experience doesn’t justify its existence; the fight for deserved respect – among peers, in media, at national events – is a familiar battle.
Would the presence of Madison Hughes have helped Dartmouth in the CRC?
While Penn State celebrates arguably the most successful month that any college team has ever experienced, the teams in its wake are brainstorming paths to similar heights. Lindenwood is in the midst of an aggressive overhaul, one that began with first-year head coach Billy Nicholas, continued with a dedicated group of players, and is being realized through 7s.
Cal may not have been perfect, but they battled enough and got a couple of special plays to emerge CRC winners for the third time in a row.
Captain Jake Anderson provided the winning moment, cutting through the Kutztown defense to score the winner in overtime, but it was Anderson, speaking with Goff Rugby Report, who also saw the problems.
Cal defeated Kutztown on a sudden-death overtime try from Jake Anderson to win the Cup Final of the CRC 17-12 Sunday at PPL Park in Chester, Pa.
This was the third straight time that Cal has won the tournament, and caps a string of six tournaments in which they have finished 1st three times, 2nd once, and 3rd once.
