GRR: College Men
The men's DII college championships, regardless of who has run them, have been fraught with caveats over the last several years.
We at GRR pondered how to write a headline for this article.
Lindenwood University just cut 10 spots. We heard the news over the weekend and many people who heard it immediately assumed that rugby was one of those sports or assumed rugby was in danger. But rugby, for both men and women, is still going strong at Lindenwood.
Why?
After reflecting on the past weekend in college rugby, we at GRR World Headquarters got down to looking at college conferences.
It’s an all-Kentucky NCR D1AA final after Louisville garnered revenge for the 2022 championship loss to Virginia Tech, and Kentucky unleashed the Wildcat on Boston College.
So Saturday in Houston it will be Louisville vs Kentucky for the NCR title.
It's an all-Rugby East NCR D1 final and an all-Kentucky NCR D1AA final.
We'll get to Kentucky and Louisville in another article. In D1, St. Bonaventure got a last-second penalty goal to beat Brown 15-13 in their semifinal.
