It's weird times in the NEWCRC.
After being touted quite heavily in these pages for its competitiveness top to bottom, the league has in fact split rather dramatically.

One more big game for Navy as we see the massive showdown between St. Bonaventure and Navy, two unbeaten teams in the Rugby East.
