Idah State University Rugby Club announces fall schedule

Idaho State University Rugby Club, which compiled a 16-3-1 record last season, has announced its fall 2011 match schedule, which includes 10 matches and begins Sept. 3.

"The team is probably the strongest we've ever had here," said Ram Eddings, team coach and advisor. "We had a great recruiting season, including landing four young men from a Jesuit high school in Sacramento, Calif., that won the 2011 national rugby prep championship. They’re a great addition for us."

 The club's schedule is:

Sept. 3 – ISU Alumni Hall of Fame, home

Sept. 10 – Montana Tech, away

Sept. 17 – U.S. Air Force Academy, home

Sept. 24 – Weber State, away, conference game

Oct. 1 – Utah State, home, conference game

Oct. 8 – Utah Valley, away, conference game

Oct. 15 – Boise State, home, conference

Oct. 22 – Boise Sting Rays, home

Oct. 29 – Western Montana, home

Nov. 15 – Central Washington, away

All home games are played at Bartz Field beginning at 1 p.m. except for the Air Force game that begins at noon.

The ISU Rugby Club is part of the Utah Rugby Union's Collegiate Division.
