GRR: Quinnipiac
The 2014-15 season was an unforgettable one for Life University, which competed in its first DI season and finished third at the national spring championships. The Running Eagles then followed with a debut performance at the CRC 7s and sent a representative to the first-ever Women’s Collegiate All American 7s team, which won the Elite City 7s.
First it was Army, and now it’s Quinnipiac that has banked its first-ever 15s win against Norwich. The Bobcats traveled to Northfield, Vt., for this all-varsity matchup and returned to Connecticut with a 48-19 victory (read more).
After a tight first half, Quinnipiac pulled away to beat new varsity program Dartmouth 43-5. The Bobcats improve to 2-1 overall, while the Big Green are 1-1 overall.
The first varsity match of the season occurred today, as Quinnipiac University traveled to Euclid, Ohio, to face Notre Dame College, which is celebrating its first DI season. After a long stalemate, the Bobcats pulled ahead 41-10 for the victory.
From the moment that the Quinnipiac women’s team met Austin Hill, the Bobcats have been invested. In September 2013, the DI team traveled to Colorado to play Air Force, and that’s where the players and staff were introduced to the former rugby player.
