SCRC News
In NCAA varsity sports it’s called the Southeastern Conference, or the SEC, but in non-varsity rugby it’s the Southeastern Collegiate Rugby Conference, or SCRC.

LSU, Florida, and Mississippi State all emerged winners this weekend in the SCRC Collegiate Conference.
Mississippi State played at Ole Miss Sunday, and the Maddawgs won 33-12 with tries from Terrance Matthews, Pieter Both, Alex Schultz, Tim Brown, and Demarrion Haynes. Schultz added eight points and conversions, while Both added another.
The fall college season is underway and league games are coming soon.

The University of Kentucky rugby team has announced the two players who receive scholarships sponsored by their rugby alumni.
