GRR: No name
In this week's Game Breakers, we look at the DI Men's College players who made an impact for their teams over the past weekend.
Niall McNamara
Bowling Green flanker McNamara was big on defense and became a crucial weapon for the Falcons in winning his teams own restarts, helping them to a 44-22 win over Ohio State.
Chris Baumann’s try for the USA against Samoa was probably the first time that many rugby fans have heard his name.
The University of Wyoming, Steamboat Springs, Aspen, Life, Tempe Santa Monica, and NYAC player has certainly been all over the place, working and playing and trying to make it.
This year, he finally got his first cap, and Sunday his first USA try.
The University of Massachusetts Amherst is off to a 2-0 start in the ECRC, and things look pretty good as they chase BC, AIC, and Middebury for the conference title.
The Minutemen disposed of Northeast 65-7 on Saturday after beating UConn in their conference opener.
Head Coach Phil Ciccarelli said the team is working together well early.
Xavier University won their opener in the Great Lakes Men’s DII South Division with a 41-12 defeat of previously 1-0 Marshall.
Lindenwood’s first and second sides have played two games apiece, and they’ve combined for a 390-0 scoreline. But the Lady Lions aren’t padding their schedule with gimme games; those victories came against two traditionally strong DI teams, Northern Iowa and Indiana. And this weekend, the Missouri side travels to State College, Pa., to take on Army and Penn State.
