Saturday the premier college rugby teams from the Southeast United States will face off and see whose National Title challenge is real.
This weekend, March 28 and 29, the University of Alabama will host in Tuscaloosa. Those teams who topped their matrices in women's Division 1 and 2 and mens 2 and 3 will play-off against each other and send on representative from each to the nationals.
Division 1
In a clash of the Carolinas, the Lady Tigers of Clemson will meet the North Carolina Lady 'heels. Clemson are 3-1 on the year with their only loss coming to the Univ of Florida.
The Lady Tar Heels are undefeated in 2009
Division 2
Women
The Gamecock ruggers from Columbia, S.C. are itching for a fight game. Prepared to take on Middle Tennessee State last week, the Blue Raiders simply no-showed. Now they will face Central Florida in their semi final
In the other Semi, Elon and East Carolina will face off.
Men
The Mountaineers of Appalachian State face South Florida in on match, while at the same time, hopefully on another field, Georgia Tech faces East Carolina.
Division 3
The Furman University Paladins are 5-1, and come into Tuscaloosa with a D3 reputation. Five of the last six years have seen them advance to nationals, and they are the reigning South Champions. Tulane University will be their final four opponent.
Coastal Carolina are huge, and they come in undefeated in their matrix after last week defeating North Carolina's number 1 seed. Lee University stands in their path, the Cleavland, Tn team is becoming a regular in this tournament.
