GRR: Awards
The Rugby Northeast Men's DII college conference has named it's all-conference teams.
Leading the list is Bentley College No. 8 Connor Roberts, who was named league MVP.
If you read Goff Rugby Report a lot you will realize that we have a soft spot for the unheralded players.
When we at Goff Rugby Report World Headquarters chose Malcolm May as the best forward in Men’s Di college rugby this fall, the choice had to be made having not seen all of the candidates - so we relied in part on coach feedback, and that’s where May excelled.
Fall DI rugby is done and it’s time to select some award-winners; we here at Goff Rugby Report World Headquarters have combed the games and teams to bring you the best, and here they are.
All of these awards are for the fall only. So we will revisit these awards in the spring and expand on them to include 7s, as well.
As college rugby teams do a better job of attracting more athletic players to the game, creating varsity and quasi-varsity programs, and breaking away from the old club model, it’s worth noting when an old-school club team does well.
