Lotsa lotsa rugby this weekend, including the USA 15s Eagles kicking off their WXV Global Series in Ireland. Before that Sunday fixture, the college, senior club and high school realms are alive with mostly 15s, but also 7s, rugby. Notably, Quinnipiac is back in club sports form and play UCONN this Saturday. We’ll be sure to check in with the Connecticut program. [lead photo: Kevin Keister]
