Arkansas Reps Mid-America at Natl's
A 2-0 weekend saw Arkansas unseat reigning champion Nebraska for the Mid-America title. The Razorbacks continue their playoff run with automatic entry into this weekend’s national Round of 16 at Northern Iowa, the West regional sight for the USA Rugby Women’s DII College Fall Championship, hosted by ACRA.
Stevens Point Women Shine
UW-Stevens Point won the Great Waters Conference in women's DII college rugby this past weekend, beatin UW-Whitewater 92-5 in the championship game.
Rutgers, Vassar Prepare for Showdown
It’s been all about the winning at Rutgers, as their women’s team defeated Hofstra on Sunday to improve to 5-0 in the Tri-State South, and drop Hofstra to 4-1.
Head Coach Ken Pape said earlier this season that the program is seriously thinking about moving up to DI, and continued strong performances are how they can get there.
The Championship Curse?
It was supposed to be the game: USA Rugby’s DII champion vs. a DII ACRA finalist. Last Saturday’s match was a friendly – sure – but neither team viewed it as such.
Tri-State Teams Rising to Top
Rutgers, Vassar, and Hofstra are all 2-0 in the Women’s DII Tri-State Conference, all with impressive victories in the first couple of weekends.
Certainly there’s a big difference between the top teams and the lower teams in the conference, and it seems that all three 2-0 programs are in the top group.
