GRR: College Men
Queens University of Charlotte beat GRR's #1-ranked DIAA team Mary Washington 32-5 to cap off Senior Day and clinch the Chesapeake Conference championship Saturday.
The manner of the Queens victory was impressive. Yes UMW came very close to scoring more, but to hold the Mothers to five points when they had been averaging more than 60 before then is notable.
The South division of the Great Midwest Conference shook things up with Northern Iowa and Illinois State both winning semifinals Saturday.
That sets up a championship final November 6 in Cottage Grove, Wisc., while Wisconsin-Whitewater and Marquette will battle for this.
Some big games highlight this weekend in Men's DI college rugby.

There's been a Northern Lights sighting; the conference in Minnesota has been very quiet, but Minnesota-Duluth plays MSU Mankato on Saturday for the conference title.
Michigan State held off Michigan 15-5 Friday night in Ann Arbor to essentially secure 4th place in the Big Ten and a spot in the 3rd-4th Game on November 13 in Chicago.
MSU has played five games in conference play—their game vs Purdue was called off but will be played November 6. Michigan, at 2-3, will be playing undefeated Indiana, and are not favored to win.
