Men DII College News
After a year when there wasn't much rugby, making it that much more difficult for college players to move and connect with senior clubs, we're actually seeing a very strong connection between collegiate rugby and club rugby in the USA Club 7s Championships.
Questions remain about collegiate conferences and how their fall season looks as they come back from COVID shutdowns, and for some conferences, the questions can't be answered until the season starts.
Allegheny College Conference Looks to Fall 2021
The Allegheny Collegiate Conference has set its schedule for its Men's D2 and Men's Small Co0llege divisions.
The two conferences cross over occasionally, with school-supported Robert Morris and the new varsity program, Rio Grande, both small-college programs, also testing itself against some D2 teams.
The Great Lakes Conference has (mostly) settled its schedule for this fall.
While the specific dates aren't confirmed (games might be on the Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, but haven't been confirmed as to the specific day). Week 1 is the weekend of September 11, and then Week 2 is the weekend of September 18, and so on.
The SCRC has set its schedule for the fall of 2021, with, once again, a D1 and D2 men's collegiate conference in play.
The Men's D1AA conference will likely operate independently from any of the acronymic organizations (NCR, CRAA, ACR), but will find an end-of-fall postseason option within the CRAA framework.
