GRR: Life University
Life University's new women's undergraduate rugby team rebounded from a loss to Quinnipiac to beat Middle Tennessee State University 71-7 Saturday in their first victory of their first season.
On a very hot day the Running Eagles lasted longer and scored 13 tries, with No. 8 Nicole Syasko and wing Deshel Ferguson scoring seven between them.
Marietta, Ga. - Life University has announced that their Rugby Head Coach, Dan Payne, has been promoted to Assistant Athletics Director.
On July 1, the women’s team at Life University officially became a varsity program. Big changes lie ahead, not least among them the opportunity to offer more athletic scholarships, but coach Rosalind Chou isn’t rushing the growth of the young program.
Chou is fortunate to have Director of Rugby Dan Payne lending guidance.
The ACRC season is reportedly going to culminate in a clash between the Rugby East champion and Life University.
