The US Naval Academy defeated the US Military Academy 27-14 Saturday to improve to 8-0 in the Rugby East and 10-0 overall, beating their heated rivals for the first time since 2019.
There's still plenty to play for in the Rugby East, not least because of the CRAA/NCR split.

In one of the most thrilling and exciting college rugby games in recent memory, Notre Dame College scored on the final play of the game and freshman flyhalf Lachy McDonald slotted the touchline conversion to secure a 40-39 victory for the Falcons over Kutztown University.
