GRR: College Men
For the second year in a row, BYU rode a torrid first half to defeat Central Washington in the D1A playoffs.
The Cougars exploded for a 33-5 early lead before Central Washington was able to somewhat right the ship. Regaining the momentum, the Wildcats stormed back, but there wasn't enough time. BYU held on 40-24.
When you get right down to it, Life University has only lost once all season, and that was a pretty close game; Saturday they aimed to prove they were, indeed, that good.
OK, let's say it again—this is the most competitive D1A season, perhaps ever.
Really we were saying this in 2023, too, so maybe it's just the new normal.
The four finalists for the Rudy Scholz Award as the top collegiate rugby player in the USA have been named.
The spring D1AA season is coming to a head with two playoffs this weekend, another next weekend, and a weekend of bowl games and a championship at the beginning of May.
