GRR: University of Delaware
Kutztown University brought the University of Delaware team down to earth Saturday, beating the resurgent Blue Hens 77-21.
In the team’s first game of rugby in two years, the University of Delaware defeated St. Joseph’s 46-34 Saturday in Newark, Del.
A captain, so the saying goes, doesn’t desert a sinking ship.
It’s expected, and honorable; but what if the captain not only goes down with the ship, but helps rescue the ship, and gets it sailing again? Is it too much to call all of that heroic?
University of Delaware rugby captain Chris Mattina may not think of himself as a hero, but somehow he did what seemed impossible.
The University of Delaware has reinstated the men's rugby team for the 2015-16 season, cutting short what had been a five-year suspension of the program stemming from a party that became a school-body-wide event that made national news.
