GRR: College Men
St. Bonaventure won an all-Catholic clash this weekend with a 45-27 defeat of Mount St. Mary's.
It was a good early result for Bonnies as the Mount is strong this year.
Saturday’s Men’s D1 and crossover games provided a few on-paper upsets and close surprises as teams started to get moving after a long layoff.
Queen's University Charlotte men's team pushed West Point in an early-season non-conference game.
Yes West Point won, but the score, 48-28, and the fact that it was 26-21 50 minutes in, is encouraging for Queen's.
It's Labor Day Weekend and the beginning of a serious series of college rugby games in D1.
Now, this week and probably next we're mixing up D1A and D1AA / NCR D1 because they are mixing themselves up. Only once we get into strict conference play can we separate them (and maybe not even then).
Some thoughts, now, on what's happening this weekend:
Two Liberty Conference Collegiate Conference rivals met Wednesday night in the wind and rain that was the point man of Hurricane Ida, and it was an intriguing matchup.
