The team was late to the venue, shortening their warmup, and missing a couple of players because of injury, and as a result saw York run out to an early lead.
East Carolina finishes up their Southern Rugby Conference league season with a game against Elon Saturday, with a chance to go undefeated.
Their first five games could hardly have gone any better, as ECU has outscored opponents 187-22, including a most impressive 36-5 defeat of their closest rivals in the Southern Conference North Division, Appalachian State.

Kutztown University’s victory over Army was certainly an opportunity to notice the well-known players, such as Robert Stortz, Wes Hartmann, Jonathan Sage. But instead let’s look at Nick Hohlt.
