DIA Rugby News
The Middlebury College men's rugby team was voted on by teams of the ECRC conference as the more sportsmanlike this season.
I have been fortunate to work on a few webcasts recently as a play-by-play or color commentator (actually, I did 16 games in the space of ten days but who’s counting?), and I have some opinions that have sprung up from those experiences.
Fall DI rugby is done and it’s time to select some award-winners; we here at Goff Rugby Report World Headquarters have combed the games and teams to bring you the best, and here they are.
All of these awards are for the fall only. So we will revisit these awards in the spring and expand on them to include 7s, as well.
As college rugby teams do a better job of attracting more athletic players to the game, creating varsity and quasi-varsity programs, and breaking away from the old club model, it’s worth noting when an old-school club team does well.
In making AIC the #1 DI men’s college team in the fall I had to make a few assumptions, because AIC didn’t play everyone in the country; I had to make assumptions based on the style of play, and the athleticism, and the type of players other teams have.
