GRR: Penn State
Penn State Rugby has embraced a grand community tradition on campus and has become the one sports team at the school to throw its weight behind tyne THON dance marathon for pediatric cancer.
When we at Goff Rugby Report World Headquarters chose Malcolm May as the best forward in Men’s Di college rugby this fall, the choice had to be made having not seen all of the candidates - so we relied in part on coach feedback, and that’s where May excelled.
In the final weekend of Rugby East action, Penn State defeated previously-unbeaten Kutztown, but KU did just enough to secure the conference championship.
Both teams scored three tries, with Penn State kicking three conversions and a penalty for 24 points, while all three of Kutztown’s tries went unconverted, leaving the score 24-15.
Penn State scored a big Rugby East Conference victory with a 56-12 defeat of Iona Friday night in Happy Valley.
Penn State is still in with a shot to win the Rugby East, but to do that the Nittany Lions will have to get by the always difficult Iona College.
