Rugby, at times can be a rough sport, but is very fun and the girls on the team are close and look out for each other during the games.

Rugby season is in the fall. That is when wins and losses are actually recorded in the league. However, pre-season
games are played during the fall semester. These games are not recorded, but are a way to practice
and get ready for the upsoming fall semester games.
