It’s go time! The Midwest and Empire name their senior club champions. NCAA varsity teams in NIRA hold their semifinals, and National Collegiate Rugby (NCR) holds three divisions’ worth of regional championships. This spreadsheet is particularly helpful in distinguishing college post-season pathways. NorCal names its high school 7s champion and the WPL All-Stars play Te Tai Tokerau Natives in Seattle. Livestreams links are included if known. Send updates to Jackie Finlan or DM @therugbybreakdown on Instagram. Good luck to all those teams that worked so hard to get to playoffs!
