West Chester, PA — The National Small College Rugby Organization (NSCRO) is pleased to release its selections of 25 student-athletes named as NSCRO Men’s All-Americans and 25 Rising Stars for the 2018-19 season.

NSCRO has over 6,500 active men's collegiate players. Many were considered based on club nominations submitted to NSCRO, reports from NSCRO scouts at our playoffs and at the All-Star National Championship.

This year’s All-Americans include six 2018 All-Americans along with ten 2018 Rising Stars rising to full All-American status plus nine new selections. The Rising Stars saw five players from 2018 receiving this honor again plus 20 new selections. NSCRO All-Americans recipients have been determined by our selection committee to be the preeminent collegiate players within NSCRO. These 25 All-Americans have demonstrated their skills, commitment and physical dominance that have made them stand out amongst their peers. Congratulations to our NSCRO 2018-2019 All-American class.

NSCRO Rising Stars recognize outstanding young players with emerging talents that are on the cusp of confidently ascending towards NSCRO All-American recognition. We look forward to seeing these players’ future contributions to their teams, NSCRO and to rugby. Congratulations to all who have received this prestigious recognition.

NSCRO All-Americans and Rising Stars will receive a certificate of recognition along with an NSCRO All-American t-shirt.

Our congratulations go out to the following athletes:
