GRR: Virginia Tech
Virginia Tech proved themselves worthy opponents after a rough regular season, beating Boise State to make the NCR DIAA final in Houston.
The Hokies had finished 5th in the Chesapeake with a 2-4 record, but with the top teams in that conference going to the DI playoffs, there was a chance in the DIAA playoffs for Tech to make their mark.
Mount St. Mary's shut out Virginia Tech on the road this past weekend, taking the Hokies down 35-0.
The match kicked off in hot conditions. The Mount started the game off quickly with a try by Angelo Gurcsik five minutes in. The forwards provided a strong scrum platform for the backs to work the ball through the ends to release the senior wing Gurcsik on the edge.
Without playing this weekend, NC State did what it needed to do and will be in the 2nd-vs-3rd playoff in the Chesapeake Conference.
The road to the Chesapeake Conference probably goes through Maryland, but Virginia Tech is driving the bus.
The University of Mary Washington had to battle for it, but came away with a four-try bonus point and a 22-12 victory over Virginia Tech in the Chesapeake Conference.
it was a muddy affair in Blacksburg, Va,, but it was enough for the Mothers to almost clinch the Chesapeake. UMW just has to garner a single bonus point from its final two league games to secure 1st place.
