Top D2 Players of the Fall: Scrumhalf

There is a lot of scrumhalf talent in Men's D2 College Rugby.

For many teams, the attack runs through the #9 as much as the #10—it's a partnership.

These players below are all excellent leaders and hard workers, but we'll take a moment to point out RJ Beach, who has been central to a hugely successful IUP team. In the finals weekend, Beach was carrying an injury which severely limited his ability to run, a key component of his game.

And yet still he helped lead IUP to victory. That's pretty impressive.

Solid work all around. Here are you #9s.
