GRR: NCR
One of the unanswered questions in American rugby right now is how USA Rugby and National Collegiate Rugby will work together.
(NCR Press Release)—National Collegiate Rugby (NCR) is pleased to announce the hiring of Jeremy Treece as its new Chief Executive Officer. Steve Cohen, current CEO and founder of National Small College Rugby Organization (NSCRO) will be focusing his time on strategic programming for the organization.
The Mid-Atlantic Rugby Conference has confirmed that it will not hold a fall season.
The MARC will not be able to operate due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The MARC will not sanction competitive collegiate rugby for the Fall of 2020. No conference play, no playoffs.
Most college conferences that normally compete in 15s in the fall have announced that they will suspend their seasons.
The Big Ten and Liberty conferences haven't officially-officially made that announcement, but we're fairly confident that they will.
Most college rugby programs will be idle or mostly idle this fall, but a few are active, and they all have to adjust to the COVID world we live in.
"With no contact we're working a lot on skills that don't require contact," said Lindenwood Men's Head Coach Josh Macy. "We'll probably be a lot better on ball skills and skills not related to contact."
