We continue with our list of the top DIAA and NCR DI players of the fall with our top backs.
We scoured through the nation, asking coaches, looking at third-party assessments, and going from our own observations to find the players that made the biggest impact in the top NCR D1 level, the NCR D1AA, and the USA Rugby D1AA. So not included here are CRAA D1A players (although there is a small amount of crossover as some teams are members of both NCR and CRAA). To see our D1A list go here: Top D1A Players of the Fall: The Forwards and here Top D1A Players of the Fall: The Backs.
(We haven't included players from conferences that don't play in the fall, and we also decided to wait until the NCRC season was finished, so we'll include those players in the spring.)
