GRR: Mid-Atlantic Rugby Conference
A very young St. Joseph's University squad defeated Villanova in a warmup game over the weekend.
The game was a series of three 30-minute periods and SJU ended up ahead 40-12 after all was said and done.
The Mid-Atlantic Rugby Conference has announced that it is bringing two new members into the conference at the D1AA competition level.
The University of Pennsylvania will be joining effective for spring 2023 7s competition; Virginia Tech Rugby Football Club will be joining effective for fall 2023 15s competition.
We have some more conference champions in Men's D2 college rugby.
GeorgetownThe Georgetown Hoyas not only won the MARC but won it in impressive fashion 65-19 over Villanova. Considering Villanova had only one opponent get closer than 20 points, that's a big score.
St. Joseph's leads the Mid-Atlantic Rugby Conference with a 6-0-1 record after beating Delaware over the weekend.
The Hawks how look to secure their position when they play James Madison on November 12. JMU won also, beating Maryland 36-34 to improve to 5-0. (JMU's game with Rowan was hurricaned out and will likely not be made up.)
Don’t look now but James Madison is making a move.
After a series of years where JMU was not getting the results they are used to, the Dukes are now 3-0 and right in the thick of it with 4-0-1 St. Joseph’s and 3-0 Rowan.
