Gamebreakers from Men's D1 College
We're back with our Gamebreakers and this week we've got the best performers from men's D1A, D1AA, and D1 college rugby.

Iowa State held off University of Iowa 18-10 in a tense Heart of America conference game Saturday.
The Cyclones secured an early 15-0 lead but after that was under a lot of pressure from Iowa. Seeing one player get two yellow cards, and thus being shorthanded throughout the second half, didn’t help.
D1 College Rugby Games 9-11 Weekend
D1A, D1AA and NCR's D1 divisions are all in action this coming weekend.
Men's College: Some Cross-Divisional Surprises
Saturday’s Men’s D1 and crossover games provided a few on-paper upsets and close surprises as teams started to get moving after a long layoff.

Some thoughts, now, on what's happening this weekend:
