GRR: College Men
Arkansas takes on Oklahoma this weekend in a rematch of an early Red River clash, and it's the last chance, really, for the Razorbacks to knock off a big opponent.
In the previous game, OU won 48-25 and put themselves back into conference contention. And a week ago Oklahoma beat Texas Tech in a game that Head Coach Doug Neubauer said was important psychologically.
Central Washington defeated Lindenwood-Belleville 45-12 Thursday night in Illinois in the first of a two-game Midwest trip for the CWU Wildcats.
It’s early days yet but 1st in the NCRC could well come down to this weekend’s Oregon v Western Washington game.
Both teams won big last weekend, and now will meet up in Eugene, Ore. this weekend.
Oregon Head Coach Pate Tuisue led his team to a 74-18 win over Washington State.
Central Washington opens up its inter-collegiate 15s schedule Thursday with a game at Lindenwood-Belleville, and will follow that up with a face-off with Lindenwood St. Charles on Saturday night.
The Texas Tech men’s rugby program has announced that the team’s co-captain and starting flanker Quinn Noel has died.
No details are available as to the circumstances of Noel’s passing, although his family has been notified. Noel was a leading player on the team and enormously popular.
