Mid-Atlantic Rugby Conference

As most teams had a bye last week, James Madison had an impressive win over Lock Haven, and Rutgers improved to 2-1 with a win over West Chester. This week, most Keystone teams will return to action and a lot is at stake.

Let's cut right to the chase... the match of the week has to be James Madison vs Pittsburgh. James Madison will travel up to Pittsburgh as both teams look to remain undefeated in the West division.  Pittsburgh has been playing some well balanced rugby between the backs and forwards and James Madison has simply been on fire. This match should be a good game and the winner will more than likely control the West division.

Also in the west, Lock Haven will travel to Shippensburg where both teams are looking for their first win. Shippensburg recently had a narrow defeat to Millersville and Lock Haven has had to run a guantlet to start the season against both Pitt and James Madison .

In the East, the focus will be on Rutgers at Saint Joseph's University. Saint Joseph's will look to remain undefeated while Rutgers is coming off a big win over West Chester. Rutgers will need a win in order to remain in the hunt for one of the top divisional playoff spots.

Also in the East, Temple will square off against West Chester. Temple is currently 1-1 and will try to improve on that record to solidify a top spot in the East division while West Chester looks for their first win of the season.

On bye this weekend will be Millersville in the West division and Villanova in the East division.

All around, there are some intriguing matchups and the games this weekend can go either way. Be sure to check back here for the latest score updates and results. Good luck to all the teams this weekend.
