DIA Rugby News
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.
Kutztown University remains at #1 in the Goff Rugby Report fall rankings, with, in face, no change in the top 11.
Tennessee's win over South Carolina bumps the Vols up a little and St. Bonaventure comes in at #39 after beating Notre Dame College. It's interesting to rank a team that's 1-5 in conference play, but you know we'll be doing the same in the spring.
A couple of notable results were recorded over the past weekend, as two teams that have not won much at all this fall found themselves in the W column.
St. Bonaventure, 1-5 in the Rugby East, defeated #16 Notre Dame College 34-29. Buffalo, 0-6 in Rugby East, faced a longtime rival in Brockport, and won big, 101-17.
While the University of Buffalo has a big game this weekend against St. Bonavanture, they will be without one of their most electric players, as Ike Onwukanjo, along with his brother, Onye, will be in South Africa.
Utah is now 4-0 in the D1A West after beating Air Force 41-30 Saturday.
The game wasn’t quite as close as the score implies, as Air Force scored two late tries to close the gap.
