BYU Rugby Media Blitz #4

Well folks, the BYU Men's Rugby team has just come off a busy weekend with wins against UVU and Colorado's first and second XV. And while the consistency of their execution seemed to vary as much as the Utah weather, nevertheless the Cougars produced some of their best overall rugby yet this season... though later rather than sooner, happening mostly in second-half play.

Credit to the opposition as well; both UVU and Colorado provided great attacks on offense that truly tested the BYU defense while simultaneously holding BYU to relatively skimpy first-half scores. My respects to both programs.

Take a moment and view the BYU vs. Colorado match to see what I mean...

When you get to the BYU-TV page, click the central "Tune in Now" banner; then load the player file (if you don't have it already), and search for "College Rugby" at the 1:00 PM time slot for March 13th.

If you didn't get to go to the games or just want to hear and see a little more in general (such as read the latest buzz about a possible College Premier League), then here's the scoop.
