College Men
Well is it settled after the regular season is over? Quite possibly.
The Empire Conference season ended with three games this weekend, and still most of the league with hope of making the conference final. League-leaders Binghamton lost, but got bonus points for four tries and a close loss, and that was enough to keep Binghamton in front.
Wisconsin-Whitewater defeated previously 4-1 Northern Michigan Saturday, running out to a 49-0 halftime lead and cruised to 56-24 win to finish 6-0 in the WIIL North.
James Madison and Mount Saint Mary's both recorded key wins in the chase for the Chesapeake Conference title.
The University of Tennessee held off South Carolina 13-10 Saturday to improve the Vols' SCRC playoff chances, and put a heavy damper on the same prospects for the Gamecocks.
In a game that was more about emotion and intensity than it was about smart and precise rugby, Tennessee took an early lead, but couldn't build on it.
In a dramatic and much-anticipated non-conference college matchup, Notre Dame College held off the University of Indiana 31-30.
