College Men
Collegiate 7s is getting underway and we had some action this weekend—here's how it shook down.
Warmup TimeTeams are looking for non-tournament ways to warm up and one example was at The Citadel, where the rugby program ran out two teams against College of Charleston and Coastal Carolina. Citadel B went a creditable 1-1 and Citadel's A-side won both games.
BYU made the trip to Ellensburg, Wash. and handed Central Washington a tense 22-17 defeat Saturday.
The Cougars bounced back from a loss at Saint Mary's last week, and this time overcame a red card to prop Billy Tenney in the first half to hold off a Central Washington comeback.
The Gold Coast, Pacific Western, and Florida are all in action this week.
The social media post kind of says it all for Cal State Long Beach—first conference game in two years.
The 49ers face off with Arizona State this weekend after a long layout. Oh, they've been playing rugby, facing off with UC Davis and Saint Mary's, and even winning the conference 7s tournament in the fall, but this is different.
Of the DIA games we've got this week all are between DIA opponents (as opposed to crossovers with DIAA teams), and almost all are in-conference.
So that means this is a serious week for the entire division.
