USARS Women's DII Championship Wrap-Up

Thank you Wendy for reminding us that we hadn’t yet published the results of the USA Rugby South Women’s DII Championships in Miami on Oct 6/7. Naples/Coconut Grove put on a wonderful event and I think a flamingolicious time was had by all. Thank you Raelyn and friends for your all of your efforts. The Don Shula was the bomb!

Here are the scores:
Game 1 – Naples/Coconut Grove def Nashville 44-5
Game 2 – Orlando def Memphis 51-0
Game 3 – Nashville def Memphis 15-8
Game 4 – Orlando def Naples/Coconut Grove 17-5

Congratulations to Orlando and Naples/Coconut Grove who move on to the National Women’s DII Championship (www.wdiirugby.org). They will have the advantage of competing on USARS home turf in Sanford FL on November 10/11 against DII teams representing the MidWest, MidAtlantic, and Northeast territories. Rock their world ladies!

In an effort to continually improve this event, we would appreciate any feedback regarding the South DII Championships. We will use this to make next year’s South DII Championship even better. Also, please remember that the bids to host next year’s South DII Championship event (Oct 4/5, 2008) are due by Nov 17, 2007 to Gary Kent. If everyone wants to know where the tournament will be (more than a month ahead of time) get your bids in NOW!

(Emily, please post results to USARS web site where appropriate.)
