GRR: Mid-American Conference
The Mid-American Conference has selected its all-conference players.
The list includes 16 players in the 1st XV because they included a utility player.
Conference champions Bowling Green, not surprisingly, are featured strongly in the list with six players in the 1st team.
The Louisville Cardinals rolled through the Mid-American Conference 7s championships Saturday, and have accepted a big to the National Collegiate Rugby May Madness 7s after the win.
Bowling Green repeated as Mid-American Conference Champions Sunday, beating Western Michigan 48-15 in the final and making it six finals wins since 2014.
The MAC top four are decided after this week's results.
IUPUI needed a Cincinnati loss (which they got) and an IUPUI win (they lost 31-24 to Louisville) to make the semis, and just missed. Bonus points almost, but not quite, mixed up the standings. WMU's penchant for scoring tries even if they lose, and IUPUI's two close losses almost got them up a spot.
Bowling Green beat IUPUI 26-12 and Western Michigan got by Cincinnati 37-20 to solidify the top four in the Mid American Conference.
