There is a healthy slate of nonconference matches to keep an eye on this weekend in D1A Rugby. Most notable are Top 20 pairings between Arizona and Colorado State, as well as Cal Poly and San Diego State.
Oregon State and UC Santa Barbara participated in tournaments this past weekend to prepare themselves for their spring seasons. The Beavers hosted the Pac North Tournament, while the Gauchos traveled to UCLA to take part in the Dennis Storer Classic.
This week, three California Conference teams will be in action, two Red River teams are on Saturday’s docket, and Oregon State is hosting a round robin involving five teams.
Following a review by USA Rugby’s Collegiate Department and D1A Commissioner Kevin Battle, the Beavers were accepted into college rugby’s premier competition amongst Division I teams.
