GRR: College Men
We've been a bit quiet about ranking D1A teams this winter/spring but here's an update.
Right now Navy remains atop the rankings but there are teams circling. Key among them may well be Cal, but we could also point to Central Washington. We wanted to get these rankings out before CWU hosts Army on Wednesday just so we'd potentially have a reason to change them again.
California defeated reigning national D1A champions Army West Point 31-14 on Saturday in Berkeley, behind two tries from wing Oliver Newall.
Now 10-0 Cal will next be playing Navy in Annapolis.in a game that has the potential to be a national final preview.
Navy men’s rugby kicked off their winter/spring surge with an impressive shutout of Western University of out Ontario, Canada.
Saint Mary's is still looking to shake off their loss to Central Washington, and hope this weekend to do that against BYU.
Guilty perhaps of too many mistakes and missing a chance to finish off that game, the Gaels now look to address those issues against the Cougars.
Army kicks off a west coast tour, facing Cal and Central Washington in the space of a few days.
That's potentially the highlight of a busy D1A and D1AA weekend, but that shouldn't rub the luster off the other games.
