GRR: No name
A relatively slow weekend as Easter put several teams on the sidelines. Several teams, such as Belmont HS, Union (Oregon), Capital and Mountain View out of Idaho, and Oklahoma's Bixby move in.
Although the match-ups and kickoff times have been published (click here), the women’s DI and DII spring brackets have not.
Having cut something of a swath through the first Big Ten Universities tournament, scoring less than 50 points only once, a 43-0 shutout of Ohio State’s 2nd team.
IU was unstoppable, slamming Illinois 54-10 in the final, and overall scoring 253 points in five games and allowing 34.
The Maryland Exiles may have blown out Frederick this weekend in Rugby Maryland league play, but the well-regarded club has a rival this year, and they already know how tough.
North Bay tied the Exiles 28-28 last week, and it was a message to all in the state that there’s a challenger for the top spot. North Bay is now 3-0-1 in league play, and looking to finish undefeated.
The Women’s DII College rankings were tough to follow this year. Either the heavy hitters in the Northeast and Midwest were being heavily hit by snow and ice, or the spring-based teams were suffering through forfeit/cancelation-ridden leagues (with some notable exceptions). But after a month’s hiatus, some good results have necessitated some movement in the Top 20.
