Men DII College News
US Merchant Marina Academy moved to 2-0 in the Tri-State Conference with a 19-8 defeat of RPI Sunday.
About 40 games are slated for this week in Men's DII college rugby, and while we expect some to be postponed or canceled because teams are struggling to bounce back from COVID shutdowns, we expect to see some good games, too.
As many as one-third of the games from last week didn't get played, but here's hoping it's better for this week.
Some games to keep an eye on:
Central Michigan's victory over Grand Valley State last weekend was notable because it happened, but also because of the degree of the win.
CMU won 48-14.
Marist pulled off a very big Tri-State Conference win early in the season, beating RPI 25-12.
RPI came into the season with a big roster and some experience, and certainly plenty of potential. Marist also has bolstered its numbers and looked fairly polished on the day.
Almost 30 Men's DII college games and while we know that several teams are struggling to bring their numbers back to pre-COVID levels, we are also seeing some games that mean a lot to how the conferences might pan out.
