DIA Rugby News
ROCKFORD, IL — The Rockford Region will host the 2014 BTU Rugby Big Ten Universities Conference Championship at Sportscore Two, in Loves Park, IL. The championship will take place on Saturday, November 15 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
The word challenge gets thrown around quite a bit in rugby circles, especially when a coach is looking for a difficult opponent to test his players.
One of the biggest problems for good teams at any level is to find games that aren’t blowouts. Lindenwood Head Coach JD Stephenson certainly has been looking for those games, and searched far afield to find them.
The University of Oklahoma clinched the Red River Conference Saturday with a convincing 63-13 victory over TCU.
TCU actually led early through a penalty kick, but two tries from lock Somtochukwu Iromuanya and tries from fullback Mike Anderson, prop Cale Stumpff, flyhalf Trevon Barnes, and prop Justin Fa'aola paced the Sooners to a 36-8 halftime lead.
Here's the latest results and notes from major men's DI games this weekend:
