GRR: Women College 7s
Colorado Mesa won the CRAA Women’s D2 7s Sunday in the rain and mud in Dallas and needed all sorts of heroics to do it.
In an eight-team bracket that produced some high-level 7s, Mesa wasn’t the only team to impress. In fact, on Day One in the sun and heat they were upended 14-7 by a swift, intelligent San Jose State team.
Here’s how it all shook down:
Four teams are left for the College Rugby Association of America Women's D1 championship after Day One of the competition in Dallas.
Pool ARivals Northeastern and UConn looked set to collide once more and they certainly did. The Huskies produced a very balanced approach, hit hard, and produced a very good forward effort, including a big shove off a scrum to set up a try.
Dallas will host two CRAA women's college championship tournaments this weekend.
Seven teams will play in the D1 bracket.
Wyoming, Northeastern, and UConn in Pool A. In Pool B there are four teams, with UMass Amherst, Air Force, Virginia Tech, Boston University.
The College Rugby Association of America Women's Premier 7s tournament field is set and it promises to be a barnburner.
The CRAA Championship weekend schedule is set as five 15s games and two 7s tournaments descend on SaberCats Stadium in Houston.
The Rugby Network will be carrying these games live.
Here’s what’s at stake:
