GRR: Navy
Navy men’s rugby co-captain Lewis Gray has been selected as the Naval Academy Athletic Association (NAAA) Athlete of the Week, presented by Northrop Grumman for his performance in Navy’s 27-14 victory over Army.
The Rugby East is going down to the wire, just like everyone wanted.
With Navy's win over Army, there is still a chance for St. Bonaventure to sit atop the heap. It's a little complicated, but here's how it goes:
The US Naval Academy defeated the US Military Academy 27-14 Saturday to improve to 8-0 in the Rugby East and 10-0 overall, beating their heated rivals for the first time since 2019.
Navy remains undefeated and takes over 1st place in the Rugby East after the Midshipmen defeated Kutztown 46-16 Saturday.
With Army playing a non-conference game (a 53-8 defeat of Air Force), Navy got a chance to vault to 7-0, with West Point at 6-0.
Navy defeated Notre Dame College 36-21 Saturday at NDC, moving to 5-0 in the Rugby East and putting the Midshipmen in position to win the conference.
“We came here a few yers ago and scraped by; It’s one of the hardest places to come and play,” said Navy Head Coach Gavin Hickie.
