It’s important that high schoolers get 15s experience if they have college rugby aspirations, but especially if they are looking at Division I NCAA varsity programs. These programs compete in the National Intercollegiate Rugby Association (NIRA), and the championship season is 15s only. There is room for crossovers, walk-ons and of course 7s players, but they have to be special. Harvard University’s Cam Fields is special. [lead photo c/o @harvardwrugby]
Fields played a lot of sports growing up in Stockton . . .
