GRR: College Men
For a new conference, the Chesapeake Collegiate has been a rousing success.
Few conferences can boast so many close games, and the conference itself is still hugely competitive, with five teams still in with a shot at a conference title.
Showdown denied could well be showdown accentuated in the Southern Rugby Conference.
In the intriguing world of the independent college seasons, Notre Dame College and Lindenwood-Belleville have been chasing each other without actually facing off (yet).
It’s a dance where, as both coaches have acknowledged, every game is a playoff game. Neither team can afford to select down, or use a non-conference game as a test, because USA Rugby is evaluating everything they do.
University of Utah freshman Kelsin Pupunu (Judge Memorial HS/Kau Toa RFC) is looking to make his mark for the University of Utah 15s and 7s program this year as the PAC Conference 7s loom.
At 6-0, 190, Pupunu, a true freshman, was the top high school rugby prospect in Utah and has already shown that he can run with the upperclassmen during the fall schedule.
The race for a national playoff spot among Upstate New York teams is still, essentially, wide open, but it might be a little more wide open for a couple of teams at the top.
