Men's DII Semifinal: Furman v Minnesota-Duluth
http://www.therugbychannel.tv/videos/297176/furman-v-um-duluth#!
This is the final Men's DII rankings for the 2016-17 season.
The Norwich University men's rugby team finished off the best season in program history with an impressive 40-17 victory over three-time defending USA Rugby Division II National Champion Minnesota-Duluth on Sunday morning in the third-place match at Furman University.
Furman University pulled off quite the upset Saturday, winning their Men’s National DII semifinal over three-time defending champs Minnesota-Duluth 32-29.
Bolstered by a vocal home crowd - the semis were held at Furman - the Paladins played some sterling defense and torched the Fighting Penguins for three key first-half tries that proved the difference.
Goff Rugby Report may have Minnesota-Duluth at #2, but it’s hard to argue against the Fighting Penguins.
