DIA Rugby News
We almost didn't run a new DI rankings this week, given that there were so few games and they ran according to plan.
MORAGA, Calif. - The 2016 USA Rugby College 15s National Championships, consisting of five championship matches at Saint Mary's College Saturday, May 7, will be broadcast live from 9am to 7pm PT on The Rugby Channel.
The broadcast will be free and can be found here: www.therugbychannel.tv
Life University and Saint Mary’s will meet each other once more for the DIA championship, marking the fourth year in a row that these two schools will meet for the top prize in college rugby.
Life rode a superb defensive performance to a 41-7 victory over Lindenwood.
Men’s DI College 15s rugby is very quiet this weekend, so the two games of note better make some noise.
Saint Mary’s hosts Utah in one semi. Saint Mary’s looked shaky at times through the season. The Gaels pushed BYU 30-29 early in the season, but on a two-game trip to Utah lost big to those same Cougars and almost lost to Utah in a 57-50 barnburner.
Saint Mary’s center Dylan Audsley has been named as the first-ever Rudy Scholz Award Winner as the best men’s college rugby player in the country.
The award, presented by the Washington Athletic Club of Seattle, Wash. in conjunction with Goff Rugby Report, will be formally presented at a gala event on June 11.
