GRR: Illinois
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Men’s Rugby Club is seeking a new Head Coach.
This is a D1A program in the Big 10.
Neuqua defeated South Suburban 27-7 in Rugby Illinois action Friday night.
Both teams started this one with younger lineups forced by a couple of key injuries amid rebuilding seasons. Match conditions weren't conducive to a flowing game with wind gusts up to 40 mph and very soft turf from recent storms that made going a slow, tough, muddy affair.
After the Big Ten Championship game, someone called out to Ohio State Head Coach Tom Rooney—“Hey Tom, don’t you feel 25 pounds lighter with that monkey off your back?”
Ohio State won a key clash and Michigan State shook things up as the Big Ten entered its sixth weekend of competition.
Indiana remains undefeated in the Big Ten but it wasn't an easy thing as the Hoosiers had to slog through the mud to beat Michigan State on Saturday.
With the going slow the speedy Indiana attack was someone nullified and managed only one try. It was enough as IU survived 10-0.
