Greenwich Rugby came to the Ariel Re Bermuda 7s to win—and win they did. But they got much more out of the trip than just victory on the rugby pitch. Along with clinching the Cup in the Elite Boys division with a dramatic, overtime 12-7 win over West Chester, Greenwich got the Bermuda experience—beautiful beaches, blue skies and island culture. It all added up to a journey these high schoolers will never forget.

Basketball? What basketball? It was all about rugby at the Ariel Re Bermuda 7s in Hamilton, Bermuda this weekend. Friday night saw some great contests as Greenwich High School edged West Chester, Bermuda Rugby and Dartmouth went 3-0 (though Big Green was sorely tested by Stony Brook) and Kutztown racked up 100 points in three victories before the lights dimmed at the National Sports Centre.

Delaware is back. After nearly two years of exile, the celebrated Blue Hens rugby program returned to active competition last summer and wasted no time reasserting itself on the college rugby scene, notching wins in regional 15s competition and scoring a major victory over Iona at the 2015 ACRC Bowl Series. The comeback effort earned them Men's College Club of the Year honors from Rugby Wrap Up.

The #ACRC7s championship game was a rugby rematch of the 2014 ACRC7s final when AIC upset then-unbeaten Kutztown University to take the URugby #ACRC7s Cup. In 2015 everything was advertised as the two teams warred for possession and no tries came easy in a no-holds-barred contest.
