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: Ellis Badger
School: Sacred Heart
Position: Fullback
Class: Junior

Sacred Heart continued its banner year with a convincing 103-0 win over RPI. Fullback Ellis Badger completely took away the opposition kicking game with effective counter-attacking, leading to one score in early in the game. The fullback made a number of key tackles while the match was close early, and scored two tries in the try fest.

Women’s Rugby Imports Player of the Week

Player: Tierney Morton
School: RPI
Position: number eight
Class: Fifth Year

The co-captain has been on a tear of late scoring three tries two weeks ago and netting four scores in the first round playoff victory over SUNY-New Paltz. RPI moved to 6-0 this season with the win and Morton’s leadership is one of the main reasons why the team has had a successful fall campaign.

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.
