The Louisville Cardinals rolled through the Mid-American Conference 7s championships Saturday, and have accepted a big to the National Collegiate Rugby May Madness 7s after the win.
ATLANTA – The USA Rugby 7s Collegiate Championships (R7CC) is close to confirming all the more than 60 teams schedule to compete May 14-15 at Kennesaw State University’s Fifth Third Bank Stadium.
The tournament, which will have six brackets, three each for men and for women, and will be broadcast live on NBC, CNBC, and Peacock.
Iowa State won the NCR Qualifier 7s tournament in Oklahoma City, Okla., beating Iowa Central CC in the final.
In what was perhaps a bit of a shocker, certainly it was a surprise at GRR, Saint Mary’s defeated Cal 35-26 in the second D1A semifinal of the weekend to book a place in next week’s championship match in Houston.
Army West Point will play in the D1A Final April 30 in Houston after the Black Knights held off a determined charge from Lindenwood to win Friday night's D1A semifinal at the US Military Academy.
Army led by as much as 16, 19-3, but two second-half Lindenwood tries put the Lions within a score at 19-14.
