DIA Rugby News
Our list of top performers in Men's D1 college rugby this past weekend includes players who just do the dirty work up front, players who play defense, and big scorers.
Here are our Gamebreakers for this week.
Indiana, Ohio State, and Notre Dame all won this weekend in Big Ten action, with those three teams now a total of 8-1 in conference play.
Notre Dame has the only conference loss among those three, losing their opener to Ohio State 39-14—a game the Irish would certainly have wished was a little later in the fall.
BYU swept their two-game trip to Colorado and are in a commanding position in the Rocky Mountain D1A Conference.
The Cougars defeated Colorado 41-5 on Thursday night and Colorado State 86-9 on Friday.
BYU Head Coach Steve St. Pierre joked that this harkened back to the two-game playoff weekends of years past.
In a meeting of two trophy-laden teams from last season, Army West Point beat St. Bonaventure 24-7 Sunday at Anderson Rugby Complex at the US Military Academy.
BYU plays two this weekend, the champions of NCR and D1A from last season meet up, and we might find the top dog in the new Big Rivers Conference this weekend.
