Fairfield downed a solid RPI team 58-10 Sunday, while Vassar had to battle to push aside Sacred Heart 48-34.
Fairfield Impresses in Opening Weeks
Fairfield University’s torrid start in the Tri State Conference Men’s DII competition has shot them to #13 in the nation, and it could be we will see them move further up, although it won’t be until later in October, when they face NJIT and Molloy.
It could be Fairfield, which has outscored opponents 134-24 in the first two games, will enter those big games undefeated.
