GRR: College Men
The playoffs are coming and we're here for it.
This past week we got a game we didn't expect, and didn't get a game we did expect. San Diego took on Claremont Colleges on a reschedule of a game that should have been played earlier. San Diego won.
Babson College won the Frostbite 7s NCR qualifier over the weekend, beating some D1 teams in the process.
The tournament featured an NCR CRC 7s automatic qualifier that ran over two days, plus a men's bracket on Day One and a women's bracket on Day Two.
On Saturday, February 17, a gathering of nearly 100 High School players from British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon attended the WWU High School Rugby Clinic, getting a high-level session from Western Washington University coaches and players.
We talked about this a lot last year and it's even more true this year—any team out of the top nine could be a national champion.
Central Washington pulled off an impressive win over BYU on Saturday, taking down the Cougars 21-12.
It was a windy day and CWU played into the wind in the first half. That, of course, favored BYU to a certain extent, but the wind normally benefits teams that kick and BYU loves to run.
