Over 40 men's D1-level college games are on the slate this week.
Mount St. Mary's is looking to make a surge into the upper echelon of the Rugby East and D1A, and they have an impressive, but young, team with which to do it.
After something of a line in the sand was officially drawn, all teams in the Big 10 Conference will be members in USA Rugby and pay the CRAA $20-per-play fee.
We’ve got a rundown of the results from Week 1 in the Rugby East.
Here are the results (home team listed second, GRR rankings included):
Mary Washington (D1A #14) 17 Army (D1A #7) 27
Navy (D1A #2) 41 St. Bonaventure (NCR #3) 23
Penn State (D1A #18) 22 Mount St. Mary’s (D1A #15) 26
Southern Virginia 14 Belmont Abbey (NCR #9) 31
Penn State Men’s Rugby opens up their new era with a game at Mount St. Mary’s and this is with new Head Coach Zac Mizell.
A star at Arkansas State, helping them to a D1A final in 2012, and later capped by the USA 7s team, Mizell has coached at Life, University of Texas, and, most recently, Adrian.
