The Fall 2022 Season is coming to a close and post season results have come in with Tri-State teams advancing to regional and national sections.

A big shout out is due to the two Rugby Referee Societies that cover all our games for the job that has been done throughout this entire Fall Season. Rob Gilmore the RRSNY President, Niedzielski the NYRRS President and Camille Juzwik of the RRSNY have done an amazing job ensuring that games are officiated. Thank you to all the Society Members for their support for the collegiate rugby game in this area.

Only a few games remain given that the regular season for the Fall has concluded and most of the Conference playoffs have also been played.
