GRR: IUPUI
The University of Louisville played its first competitive game of the season, and the first in over 400 days, this weekend and came away with a victory over IUPUI.
Fielding 10 freshmen, Louisville overcame some first-game jitters and emerged 26-23 victors.
Just as some college rugby teams are getting back into competition, others are slowing down their activity.
Here's a look at what happened in men's college rugby this weekend.
IUPUI won a close game over Bowling Green 26-20. Details >>
IUPUI defeated Bowling Green 26-20 Saturday in the first game for each team in well over a year.
For IUPUI this was a victory in several senses of the word as the Jaguars had to battle through losing a coach and dealing with a recalcitrant school administration.
"We got denied three times to have games," said club president Spencer Strout. "But we kept coming back."
Easter weekend doesn’t see a break in college rugby, as not only does the Mid-South stay active, but a few programs long quiet are back on the field.
