Rugby East Conference News
Navy defeated Army 32-5 in Rugby East action Saturday.
This storied sports rivalry, and a storied rugby rivalry, came to a head Saturday at the Prusmack Rugby Complex in front of a loud and boisterous crowd. Certainly favored, Navy put in what was probably their best performance.
Life University survived a bit of a scare Saturday at Mount St. Mary's, with the Running Eagles scoring late to take home a 20-19 victory.
And yes it was a loss for MSM, but still a very good outing by The Mount and more notice that the Rugby East is closing up.
Walsh University logged the program’s first ever conference win Friday night, beating Belmont Abbey 25-10 on a rainy night in North Canton, Ohio.
The game was a lot closer than the score indicates. Belmont caused Walsh all sorts of trouble in the breakdowns and threatened constantly to overhaul the Cavaliers.
The Rugby East once again is the competitive gift that keeps on giving as we get exciting and interesting results, and always a few surprises.
After something of a line in the sand was officially drawn, all teams in the Big 10 Conference will be members in USA Rugby and pay the CRAA $20-per-play fee.
