Were you on the 2003 team that went to Myrtle Beach?

I ran into the rugby team at the Bulldog Saturday night and I was told they had a good crowd at the last match. They're asking and hoping for a larger crowd this Sat. I'm hoping to head out there myself (with my baby in tow) to check out my first rugby match...

Congratulations to the Rugby team! Is this a "club" team? Is it supported by the University? Rugby is such a Man's sport, tussling without armor. WOW!

Well done Boys. I was on the last team that went the Myrtle Beach in '03. Coincidentally, we beat Alabama in the first round of that tourney, but fell to Furman in the second game. They were the superior team that day. Being it was the first year that the school actually helped us fund a team, we were very young and inexperienced. But the young guys on that team (James Saltzman, Matt McClure, etc.) are now the leaders of this team and i have every bit of confidence that you guys will return from MB victorious.

Good Luck Boys

UL's rugby team has advanced to the semifinal round of the USA Rugby South Division III Championships thanks to a 42-0 victory over Alabama over the weekend. The UL squad got a breakaway run from team captain Mitch Smith to take an early lead and got another score from Smith along with tallies from scrum half Alex Philpot, wing Matt Landry and center Daniel Correl. The UL squad finished the regular season atop the Conference B West standings with nine points courtesy of a sweep of the three other teams in Conference B West. UL took a 22-18 win over Tulane, a 29-15 win over Loyola and a 41-7 win over La. Tech in the regular season before last weekend's win over Conference B East winner Alabama. The squad will travel to Furman University in South Carolina to participate in USA Rugby South's round of four on Saturday, with the championship match on Sunday. The winner of Group B will move on to the overall South playoffs. The source of the story
