GRR: NCRC
The University of Washington improved to 3-0 in the Northwest Collegiate Rugby Conference (NCRC) with a 28-5 defeat of Oregon Saturday.
The Northwest Collegiate Rugby Conference gets going this weekend with six teams in action.
While the Western Washington University men’s 7s team has been playing in tournaments though the fall, including winning the Bowl at the NCRC 7s Championships, the WWU 15s team has been playing some strong Canadian opposition.
It was no surprise that Central Washington won the NCRC 7s, because they always win it, but it was a surprise that Gonzaga University finish second.
Zags, as they are known among Washington state fans of all sports, has played some good rugby over the years, but is now newly promoted to the DIAA NCRC championship in 15s, and had something to prove in the 7s tournament.
Central Washington went 6-0 over the weekend to win the program's sixth-straight Northwest Collegiate Rugby Conference 7s championship.
