GRR: UW-Whitewater
The WIIL Men's DII collegiate rugby conference has settled its schedule for the fall of 2015.
The conference now covers teams in Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, and Iowa, with the addition in the South Division of Northern Iowa - switching over from the Northern Lights - and Lindenwood-Belleville, a brand-new program starting this season.
While the USA Men’s 15s team is looking down the barrel of a World Cup year, it’s important to remember that there’s a season after 2015, and after that one, too.
The University of Wisconsin Whitewater are into the national DII final after defeating Notre Dame College Saturday in the national semifinal in Greenville, SC.
The final score was … but it was a tight, tense game all the way through. Notre Dame took an early lead thanks to a Ronan Forestall penalty kick and the two teams battled on the defensive line.
