We’re transitioning into playoff / championships season, and those games will lead each section’s otherwise alphabetical listing of girls or women’s rugby games occurring this Friday-Sunday, Oct. 18-20, 2024. This week, TRB updated the Division I and Division II senior clubs scenes, as well as the high school sphere. Am I missing a game, or do you have a score to report? DM Jackie Finlan at @therugbybreakdown or send an e-mail.
