College Women
The kickoff times and match-ups for the women's college spring Round of 16 are listed below. All times are listed in the host sites' local times. Albuquerque gets a jump on the field, as its DI playoffs begin Friday afternoon and the DII semifinalist will be named Saturday. All of the DI and DII spring semifinalists will be known by Sunday 5pm PT. Stay tuned for previews.
Davenport continued to impress last Saturday, as the team defeated DI Michigan 54-0. The victory marked a nice rebound after the 15-6 loss to DI Lindenwood in late March.

Norwich women won its third 7s tournament of the spring season, outscoring opponents 171-7 en route to the Scott Milley 7s title at the University of New Hampshire. But that points differential isn't even the most impressive stat; the Cadets have never lost a 7s game – ever – and boast a 51-0 all-time record.
