GRR: College All-Stars
Charlotte, NC – The Collegiate Rugby Association of America (CRAA) is about to announce that it will unveil a CRAA All-Americans East vs. West match during next spring.
This will be a curtainraiser for the Anthem Rugby Carolina MLR team to be held in May in Charlotte, NC.
One of the intriguing matchups in the CRAA Fall Classic this weekend in Spartanburg, SC is the D1AA All-Star Bowl.
The National Collegiate Rugby-run NCR All American team is on tour in France as part of a nod to the 100th anniversary of the last time the USA won their last Olympic gold medal in rugby.
Of course the USA returns to Paris '24 this year. The NCR All Americans started off impressively, beating the Beglum U23s 36-20 on Sunday in Dunkirk.
Paced by some very strong work in the forwards the Great Lakes Thunderbirds defeated the Midwest Barbarians 34-0 in the final of the NCR Men’s Collegiate All-Stars in Round Rock, Texas to take the championship.
NCR’s men’s collegiate all-star tournament kicks off Saturday with eight teams in competition in the Austin, Texas area.
The Northeast Independents are looking to make it a three-peat as they once again enter more than one team. The college rugby-dense region has a lot of depth and has come out on both in 2022 and 2023 (although they were called New England in the first year).
