GRR: ECRC
In making AIC the #1 DI men’s college team in the fall I had to make a few assumptions, because AIC didn’t play everyone in the country; I had to make assumptions based on the style of play, and the athleticism, and the type of players other teams have.
American International College shocked Clemson 54-21 in a game that showcased the depth and athleticism of the program.
In an entertaining, back-and-forth match, Boston College helds off Alabama 26-20 Friday night in the ACRC Bowl Series at Charlotte, NC.
The game was marked by some exciting back play from BC and hard-nosed work by the 'Bama forwards, and was in doubt until right at the end.
The University of Massachusetts pulled off more than an upset, but a drastic upset as the #47 Minutemen defeated the ACRL runner-up, #33 North Carolina State, 41-10 Friday evening at the ACRC Bowl Series in Charlotte, NC.
Boston College and Alabama both have their storied moments in college sports, but that doesn’t mean they have played each other much in rugby, if at all.
With BC coming off a humbling loss to AIC in what amounted to the ECRC championship game, and Alabama coming off a close loss to South Carolina in the SCRC semis, both will want to end on a high at the ACRC Bowl Series.
