GRR: Liberty Conference
Jumping quickly into major D1 rugby, Nazareth College has presented itself with a stiff challenge.
Two Liberty Conference Collegiate Conference rivals met Wednesday night in the wind and rain that was the point man of Hurricane Ida, and it was an intriguing matchup.
The University at Buffalo men's rugby team is not going to be playing rugby this fall.
The program announced today that it will suspend the season due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Here is the full announcement:
As expected the dominoes are quickly falling in men's college rugby this fall, with conferences that play their 15s season in the fall announcing (or at least making it very clear) that they will not be playing as normal because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Iona College Rugby has decided not to compete this fall.
Iona Head Coach Bruce McLane told Goff Rugby Report today, Wednesday, that the team will not play any games at least until 2021.
McLane said he expects most teams in the Northeast to come to this decision at some point, and decided that the students would benefit from an early decision.
