GRR: Eastern Washington
Western Washington and Washington State lead the field after Day One of the Men’s NCRC 7s in Pullman, WA.
WWU went 3-0, defeating Washington 43-7, Eastern Washington 19-12, Oregon 42-0. In the seller Pool B, WSU needed just two victories, but both of them were close. The Cougars beat Boise State 12-5 and Oregon State 24-19 to win the group.
It has been a rocky journey getting this far for some teams in the Collegiate Women's DII Round of 16, but after this weekend, four teams will be one step closer to facing Davenport in the May 7th DII National Championship.
Eastern Washington capped off an undefeated run in the Cascade Collegiate Women’s Rugby Conference with a 36-27 defeat of Western Washington Saturday.
The win put EWU at 5-0, and dropped WWU to 3-2 and out of contention for the championship game, which will be between EWU and Western Oregon. Those two teams battled to a 7-0 EWU win last fall, and so the final should be a good one.
