Men's College 7s News
Although the height of the women’s college 7s season has come and gone, the CRC 7s cannot be overlooked.

Pool play will be contested tomorrow, the Cup semifinals Saturday, and the final Sunday.
Among the teams deeply disappointed in not winning the Men’s DI College 7s Championships in Denver, Central Washington would have to be at the top of the list.
