Description
We are a D1-AA USA Rugby recognized club that is part of the Heart of America Conference. We travel across the Midwest and, at times, the nation to compete against other D1-A and D1-AA clubs. We play during the Fall from the first week of Fall term until Daylight Savings and we play during the Spring from the week after Spring Break until the weekend before Dead Week. We have both an A-side and a B-side so we encourage anyone and everyone to come out and play! Come out and join us!
