Men's College 7s News
Marist College won the Tri-State Conference 7s this past weekend, garnering a spot - if they can make it - at the Men's DII College 7s Championships in Cary, NC, and perhaps surprising themselves a little bit.
The URugby ACRC 7s Pools are set and the schedule done as teams get ready to descend on Virginia Beach this coming weekend.
The weekend will begin with a special Web TV Show URugbyLive! Which you will be able to see right here on Goff Rugby Report.
Twelve teams are set for the tournament. Here are the pools and schedule:

Ardmore, Pa. (ACRC 7s Report) —Old Dominion University does not need to travel far to attend the 2016 ACRC7s this weekend (April 30-May 1) at the Virginia Beach Sportsplex. But for ODU, the tournament represents a big step forward in their journey to becoming a nationally recognized rugby program.
It was a busy weekend for Men's DII college teams looking to qualify for the USA Rugby College 7s Championships in Cary, NC.
Joining Wisconsin-Whitewater and Minnesota-Duluth in the championship, Marist defeated Vassar 24-14 to win the Tri-State; Salve Regin defeated Endicott to win the CCRC; UMass-Lowell needed overtime to beat Bentley and win Rugby Northeast.
Some interesting college 7s action this weekend.
Salve Regina went 6-0 to win the Colonial Coast Rugby Rugby Conference 7s Saturday, and garner a spot at USA Rugby's Men's DII College 7s Championships in Cary, NC in May.
Salve defeated Endicott in the final behind Connor Murphy's two tries. Murphy was named MVP of the final.
