With the conclusion of
last weekend's matches,
it has been determined
which CRL clubs will
move on to the South
playoffs, to begin March
20th.
South Carolina will be
representing the CRL in
USA Division 1 play,
taking on #8 Arkansas
State in the Division 1
South Final Four. The
winner of that match
will play the winner of
Florida vs. the
Southeastern champion
(Tennessee or Georgia),
and the two championship
game contestants will
move on to the National
Round of 16.
N.C. State will be the
CRL's top Division 2
seed, set to face the #2
Division 2 team from the
Southeastern League,
which is to be
determined. At this
moment, it appears the
club will host Ole Miss
in a neutral location.
Joining N.C. State in
Division 2 action will
be Appalachian State,
who will likely travel
to Vanderbilt.
Other qualified Division
2 playoff contestants
thus far are South
Florida (Florida League
#1 seed), Eckerd
(Florida #2), Georgia
Tech (Independence
League #1), and Kennesaw
State (Independence #2).
Unlike Division 1, which
just has a semi-final
round and championship
(March 27th & 28th),
Division 2 play also has
a quarter-final round on
March 20th.
With one game remaining
in CRL play (N.C. State
@ Clemson; Friday, March
12th), the inaugural
championship will come
down to either USC or
the Wolfpack. A win over
Clemson will give the
title to N.C. State, but
a tie (even with bonus)
or a loss will hand the
CRL's Division 1
representative the first
league crown. |

The new Carolinas Rugby League
for men's collegiate rugby teams
from colleges and universities
in North Carolina and South
Carolina kicks off its season on
January 23, 2010. Wake Forest
will play South Carolina in
Columbia, NC State will take on
North Carolina in Chapel Hill,
and East Carolina will travel to
Clemson. Appalachian State has a
bye on the first weekend. This
is the inaugural season for the
league.
"It was time for a shake-up in
collegiate competition in the
Carolinas. This league structure
will bring together some fierce
rivals that will evoke a lot of
local interest," said Carolinas
Rugby League Commissioner Andy
Richards.

The fall season is now in the
rear view mirror and we’re
starting to look on down the
road towards the start of the
first ever Carolinas Rugby
League. When the idea of this
league was hatched, choosing a
champion from the 7 teams was a
difficult task. Well, with the
closure of the fall season,
picking a favorite to win the
league is even harder.

North Carolina and Palmetto
Rugby Union rosters stocked with
players from the Carolinas Rugby
League went 3-1 over the
weekend, impressing many at the
2009 USA Rugby South All-Star
Tournament in Knoxville, TN. The
North Carolina All-Stars,
coached by CRL Commissioner Andy
Richards, downed Georgia I in
the Cup Semi-Finals 14-11,
before falling to a loaded
Mid-South I team in the
Championship, 23-08. In the Bowl
Division, the Palmetto team
easily rolled its competition,
sprinting past Mid-South II
30-08 before crushing the Deep
South 66-00 in the Bowl
Championship. The two sides'
success promotes the Palmetto
team into next year's Cup
Division, and seeds the North
Carolina All-Stars #2 overall.
