GRR: UVA
The Mason Dixon quarterfinals didn’t unfold as predictably as assumed – the hallmark of an interesting post-season. On one end, North Carolina posted a shocking 153 points on Maryland; and on the other end, semifinals’ host James Madison dropped a big game to Virginia Tech.
With 15 minutes left in the match, DI Mason Dixon rivals North Carolina and Virginia were within two points of each other. One might have sided with UVA to pull ahead in the final quarter considering the team had a much more successful fall record. But it was the Tar Heels in its first conference match of the season that surged with three tries and a 29-10 win.
DI’s Virginia Women’s Rugby fell off last year. After a couple of uncharacteristic losses during the season, the team bowed out of the Mason Dixon playoffs during the quarterfinals (to James Madison).
