There will be no repeat for the men’s club rugby team.
The Warhawks’ road to last season’s 7-3 win over Middlebury in the national championship began in Cottage Grove, but that was where the journey ended this season.
The defending national champion men’s rugby team has completed its spring season and will head to nationals April 28.
The team will face Texas Tech in the National Sweet Sixteen in Cottage Grove and will face the winner of Lindenwood vs. UW-Milwaukee if they win.
The men’s club rugby team might have forgotten what losing feels like. On Sunday, the Warhawks won the Midwest Sectional for the third consecutive year, increasing their win streak to 30 matches in a row.
Behind an impressive defensive front, the Warhawks defeated Middlebury College (Vermont), 7-3, in Sunday’s Division II championship match in Pittsburgh.
