Men DII College News
The phrase "moved to spring" can mean many things, and in fact defining that phrase will be next on the plate of many college conferences.
The Southern Rugby Conference Board has voted to cancel any rugby for the fall of 2020.
The conference, which recently announced a joining with NCR, and is a robust, two-tiered Men's DII collegiate competition, decided unanimously to move all rugby to the spring, with 15s and 7s still on the table.
National Collegiate Rugby is postponing the NCR 15s Championships for 2020.
The organization said that it hopes for alternatives if conditions related to the COVID-19 pandemic improve later in the year. NCR will make adjustments based on any progress.
National Collegiate Rugby has announced the appointment of Vice President Steve Hiatt as its Interim Director of Men's Rugby.
NCR CEO Steve Cohen who has been the long term NSCRO/NCR Men's Director will be stepping down from his role as Men’s Director to focus more of his time on strategic programming for the organization.
The Tri-State Rugby Conference has announced that it will not have a rugby competition this fall.
Several universities in the conference have suspended inter-collegiate competition and many club sports have followed suit.
So the Tri-State Conference, men and women, will not support a competition and announced that all games are suspended. Teams will also not be charged dues.
