GRR: College Men
The ACRC 7s is set for April 30 and May 1 at the Virginia Beach Sportsplex in Virginia Beach, Va.
Twelve teams are expected to compete in the men’s college 7s tournament, which features some outstanding talent along the East Coast.
Of all the teams in the DIAA playoffs, perhaps the most enigmatic is Utah State.
The Aggies have beaten all DIAA-level opponents this winter/spring, playing teams such as Montana State, Bouse State, and Weber State. They don't have a league to play in, but Coach Oisin Tong said they have been challenging games nonetheless.
Five more games remain in the DIAA Round of 16 and we've got plenty of games that are tough to call.
So UC Davis is back to defend the team’s national DIAA championship, and so far it’s all gone well.
Yes the team decided to change coaches, and their old coach, who won a national championship with the Aggies, ends up getting into the US Rugby Hall of Fame, but maybe what Mike Purcell created was such a good platform that the winning couldn’t help but continue.
It's kind of hard to pin down James Madison University, as the program bounces between 7s and 15s this season, but somehow we have to do it, and somehow the players have to do it, too.
