GRR: College Men
St. Mary’s will meet Life University once again in the USA Rugby DIA final as the Gaels defeated a determined and plucky Davenport University 48-32 Saturday in Moraga, Calif.
St. Mary’s dominated in the first half, but had to weather a furious Davenport surge in the second half.
Life University laid down an impressive marker in winning their DIA semifinal over Lindenwood University 43-14.
In a very physical and sometimes chippy game, Life dominated field position and scoring in the first half. The Lions roared back in the second half to come within two tries, but Life put the dagger in late to win it.

Life University’s Running Eagles can’t be a work in progress any more, as the Running Eagles host Lindenwood Saturday in Marietta.
The young, hard-working Life team did enough to push aside Penn State last week, but Head Coach Tui Osborne wasn’t overly impressed.
Some excellent live collegiate rugby on TV and the Web this weekend:
