USA Rugby and Rugby Canada Entering into a High Performance Agreement
In a move of startling logic and something that should have positive ramifications for both nations in their pursuit of playing the game at an improved level, USA Rugby and Rugby Canada have entered into a four-year agreement establishing a fixed, recurring high-performance calendar.
Men D2 College Rankings Fall 2026 Week 9
We have a new #1.
UNC Wilmington didn't do anything wrong, it's just that, if you're beating a top-three team you should be in consideration for #1, and if we're not making a move now, when?
For the most part, this week, the rankings held. Vermont's defeat of Boston University is an exception, and Montana State moves up.
Playoff Spots Decided in NCR
NCR has finalized their playoff brackets in men's collegiate rugby.
Here is how it all shook out:
NCR D1
Twelve teams will compete with eight facing off this coming weekend while the top four teams await them in the quarterfinals. Those top four are Brown, St. Bonaventure, Indiana, and Marian.
NCR D1 Rankings Fall 2026 Week 11
We skipped last week so here is two weeks worth of rankings updates.
Brown is now #1 and that's pretty clear after a big win over Dartmouth.
Marian moves up a bit and, thanks to a win over Ohio State, Indiana moves up. However, Indiana did lose to Kutztown we it could be that Kutztown is better. We'll see in the next couple of weeks how that pans out.
D1A Rankings for 2026-27 Week 12
Indiana's win over Ohio State bumps the Hoosiers up but it also brings Penn State's win over OSU into play.
Ohio State and Indiana and Penn State are basically in the same region of the rankings so we should see them moving around each other for a while.
