GRR: College Men
The Northwest Collegiate Rugby Conference in DIAA could well decide most of its seeding this weekend.
Coming off a close loss to Navy, Dartmouth has to feel like things are looking up as the Big Green faces West Point this weekend.
It’s a busy weekend of rugby around the country and especially in Nevada, but there’s the little matter of one of the enduring rivalries in Men’s College Rugby - Cal v St. Mary’s.
Here are the scores and standings from the Men's CRC Qualifiers at the Las Vegas Invitational.
As expected, AIC dominated play in a relatively easy pool. Notre Dame College and Utah also cruised to 3-0 records.
But, there were a few shakeups and surprises.
1. There was never a 4th team in Pool E, so the other three teams there got 14-0 forfeits.
The Mid-South may be just three teams, but those teams are usually very close.
In 2014 (when Arkansas State was also part of the conference), for example, seven of the 12 games were decided by a try or less. Last year, in six games, five were decided by a try or less.
