GRR: DI Women College

As much as everyone likes to avoid two-game weekend, this will be … a two-game weekend. Friday will be the quarterfinals and Sunday will see the semifinals—everything held in Tempe, Ariz.
The Stanford Women's Rugby team clinched the CRAA Women's D1 Championship title in a game that saw them victorious over Grand Canyon University 'Lopes with a final score of 36-19 on May 5th.
Notre Dame College finished strong and rode a power scrum to defeat a talented Iowa State squad to advance to the NCR D1 Women's College semifinals Friday in Elkhart, Ind.
