DIAA College Rugby News
USA Rugby's attempt to incorporate fall men's DI college rugby into the spring playoffs has failed to take hold, at least this year.
A week before the ACRC Bowls, the ACRL champion Clemson Tigers took on the US Naval Academy.
Navy has been following a challenging fall schedule, playing highly-regarded teams every month or so. They defeated Ohio State 48-10 August 29, lost to Air Force 38-26 October 3, and beat Maryland 54-21 October 25.
The SCRC season comes down to one weekend at the University of South Carolina, and while it’s East v West in the semifinals, most think it’s going to be Volunteers v Gamecocks in the final.
After entering the season as conference favorites, Bowling Green capped off an undefeated Mid American Rugby Conference season with two victories this weekend.
The Falcons beat Miami of Ohio soundly 53-13 on Saturday to win their semifinal and set up a meeting in the final with Western Michigan, who beat Dayton 17-12.
