Kennesaw Women Look Toward Victorious Season
“The Kennesaw State University Women’s Rugby Football club was established with its inaugural competitive season starting in Fall of 2010. With its first competitive season starting in Spring 2011, the team went undefeated in the regular season, became regional champions, and competed in the National Championship play-offs for DII.” – 2011 Kennesaw State Women’s Rugby website post
Point Uses Loss to Win Great Waters
Sometimes, one of the best things a team can do is lose. That’s what happened with UW Steven’s Point during the final week of the Great Waters regular season. Its opponent, UW Eau Claire, wasn’t going to the post-season, but that didn’t dilute its aggressive work at the breakdown and fringe, nor the impact of center Robin Blevins and flanker Janee Kutz.
Tri-State Titans Go Tête-à-Tête
For Vassar and Rutgers, Sunday's conference championship is less about winning the Tri-State title and more about gauging the strength of their respective rosters. The pair have already guaranteed their places in the DII fall Round of 32, and regardless of Sunday's outcome, both will host their playoff-openers.
Mavs Look Deep Into Playoffs
In a possible preview of the conference final, DII Rocky Mountain East leaders Colorado Mesa University and Colorado College finished out the regular season against each other. The pair entered the match with perfect 5-0 records, but it was the Mavericks that enjoyed its sixth win of the season.
Stevens Pt Looking for 3rd Title
While this is the second year that Great Waters has hosted a two-pool, 14-team league, it is the competition’s first season as a hybrid league. Two of the divisions’ best – DII’s UW Stevens Point and NSCRO’s UW Platteville – squared off on Saturday, and UWSP exited with a 38-0 win to secure first in the northern pool.
