Nittany Lions survive scare and roll into Playoffs (go back »)

In what has become a topsy-turvy season for the Penn State men’s rugby team, the side was able to improve its record to 4-3 on the season and qualify for the Mid-Atlantic Rugby Football Union playoffs. The feat was accomplished thanks to a 58-22 drubbing of the University of Virginia, which capped a regular season during which the team was never sure it would be playing in the post season. The team started off slowly because of travel issues, but soon found its form and began rolling up the points, taking a 17-7 lead into halftime. To know more Rugby.
