GRR: NCRC
While the biggest news out of the NCRC may well be how a football player feels about rugby, there is more going on in the Pacific Northwest.
Western Washington moved to 4-0 in the Northwest Collegiate Rugby Conference with a 43-17 win over Boise State Saturday.
In other action, Gonzaga moved to 3-0 with a 26-24 defeat of Oregon, Washington moved to 3-0-1 with a 36-15 win over Oregon State, and Western Oregon defeated Washington State 51-17.
One of the interesting surprises in Men's DIAA college rugby is that there's an impression held by some in the East that most of the season is played in the fall.
That's not exactly the case, given that the Gold Coast, Pacific West, NCRC, and Mountain States all start in the winter, and the Heart of America and Ivy League (playoffs, anyway) finish off in the spring.
Here are the weekend's DI men's college rugby games, with several top-ranked teams in action.
Western Washington moved to 3-0 in the NCRC with a 39-0 shutout of previously unbeaten Oregon.
Shutouts and road wins are rarities in this conference, and WWU logged both on this trip to Eugene, backing it up with a 2nd side win 46-7.
