One of the more interesting results of the weekend in collegiate rugby was Lindenwood's 41-21 win over Ohio State.

Who Can Make a Move in NCR D1?

Nine games feature in NCR DI, and we might find out a bit more about who could challenge for a title.

ARC

Walsh is GRR's #1-ranked team at the moment, and kept that ranking thanks to a 20-14 win over St. Bonaventure in which they got a little bit of luck. But then again, we have talked about how great it is that the games are close in the ARC.
