NCR Championship Weekend: Who, What, and How They Got There
The NCR Championship weekend funnels teams from all sorts of backgrounds into a three-day celebration—here's a look at how the teams got here.
Penn State and St. Bonaventure to NCR D1 Final
Two Rugby East teams will face off in the NCR D1 final December 11 in Houston after Penn State and St. Bonaventure both won semifinals on Saturday.
An Introduction of Strangers: Penn State vs Queens in NCR D1 Semis
One of the great links about playoffs and tours and non-conference games is that you get matchups you'd never plan for.
NCR's D1 semifinal between Penn State and Queens University Charlotte is one of those games.
"Penn State is a storied program with 60 years of history, whereas Queens has not hit the five-year mark," said Queens Head Coach Frank McKinney.
Over 40 Men's D1 College Games This Weekend
Despite some cancelations and postponements, we've got Men's D1 rugby going and this week we've got over 40 games in DIA, DIAA, and NCR DI.
DIA
Ohio State comes off a really tough-to-take loss to Indiana where they had control of most of the set piece, but couldn't quite hold off a dynamic IU squad. They get to take out their frustrations on Michigan Friday night.
D1 College Rugby Wildness This Weekend
We have over 30 Men's DI College rugby games this weekend, with a few conferences kicking off.
