Each week the Tri State Conference will honor a men’s and women’s standout performer with the Rugby Imports Players of the Week. Rugby Imports is the number one sponsor of the Tri State Conference and is the one stop shop for all authentic rugby gear, apparel and teamwear.

Men’s Rugby Imports Player of the Week

Player: Hayden Frey
School: USMMA
Position: Number 8
Class: Freshman

Frey scored six tries against TCJN from his number eight position. He acted as the verbal commander on the field.  He was the defensive communicator and directed traffic all over the field. Although the score looks very lopsided,  he ran very hard lines and his tenacious energy led to line breaks  that  broke open the 7-7 stalemate 20 minutes into the match.

Women’s Rugby Imports Player of the Week

Player: Angela Faison
School: Monroe College
Position: Fullback
Class: Freshman

In her first ever season playing rugby, Faison has had an impact for the undefeated Monroe College. The fullback tallied three tries against Manhattanville in a resounding win for the Mustangs. Her ability to find space along with her strength and pace has shown her to be a serious attacking threat in her first year of rugby.

If you would like to nominate someone for his or her play on the field please email tristaterugbyinfo@gmail.com after the completion of your match. Each week one men’s and one women’s player will be selected for Rugby Imports Player of the Week.
