GRR: New England Wide Conference
The American College Rugby Association, ACRA, which numbers four women's D2 conferences in the Northeast, has announced that it will not hold a fall 15s championship.
As expected the dominoes are quickly falling in men's college rugby this fall, with conferences that play their 15s season in the fall announcing (or at least making it very clear) that they will not be playing as normal because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The American Collegiate Rugby Association has officially relaunched, operating collegiate rugby for four women's D2 conferences in the Northeast.
The expanded New England Wide Collegiate Rugby Conference (NEWCRC) has announced that it will join other Men's D2 conferences as part of National Collegiate Rugby (NCR).
The New England-Wide Collegiate Rugby Conference has expanded as four teams from the Rugby Northeast have joined.
With New England College and Middlebury moving to a small-college division, only four teams were left in the RNE. Those four teams—Norwich, UMass Lowell, Bentley, and Providence—all then moved to the NEWCRC because the Rugby Northeast was too small.
