College Men
In a rare midweek game in Men's DII college rugby, Roger Williams travels to Bentley tonight for a makeup game.
RWU and Bentley were supposed to clash on Saturday, but the game was rained out. With Roger Williams sitting at 3-0 and Bentley at 2-1, this game has big ramifications.
RWU Head Coach Chris Palombo said his team still needs to imporve.
Clemson University hosts Life University a week from Friday night at Clemson in what is essentially Life’s only foray with their varsity team, and a big test for the Tigers, as well.
Saturday saw another convincing win for Colorado School of Mines, as the Orediggers have celebrated their return to DII college rugby with three wins, 194 points scores, and seven allowed.
Going into the fall season in the Gateway Conference, the expectation was that St. Louis University would be favored to win, and Principia would, as the Thunder Chickens did last year, be the main challenger; but nobody asked the UMS&T players.
In Week 4 of the fall-only Men's DI college rankings, there's little change at the top, but lower down there's plenty of shifting.
(Note: Teams that play exclusively in the Spring - which, for our purposes, starts in January - are not ranked in the Fall.)
