GRR: Women DII College
The ACRA 7s championships are being held this weekend in West Point, N.Y., and action of field 1 will be live-streamed both days.
The All-Tournament Team for the Women’s DII College Spring Championship was chosen a little differently than the DI team (see the squad here).
CSU Northridge took a tough road to the DII spring championship. During the Round of 16, the SoCal champ needed overtime to beat UN Reno, and then slugged it out with Humboldt for a four-point win the following day. This weekend in Pittsburgh, Northridge defeated Florida International 27-5 in the semifinals, and then squared up against familiar opponent UC Riverside in today’s final.
Southern California is the big winner in tomorrow’s women’s DII college spring championship, as CSU Northridge and UC Riverside advance to the title bout. The victor will compete against Notre Dame College on May 9 at Kennesaw State (Ga.) for the national championship.
Rutgers celebrated back-to-back tournament wins, one in each version of the sport. Two weekends ago, Rutgers won the Tri-State 7s Championship and followed with a Beast of the East title yesterday.
