MARC Names Fall 15's All Conference Teams...

Through a collaborative effort by the coaches, the MARC is proud to announce the players named to the 2018 MARC D1AA Fall 15's All Conference Team. The 2018 fall season was one of the most competitive yet, with fantastic play from a ton of talent.  Making selections for the All Conference Team was no easy task. 

All players named all had strong performances during the fall 15's season. The first team features three players that were at the Collegiate All American camp this past summer - Noah Niumataiwalu ('20), George Harris ('19), and Luke Ellis ('19). Hopefully more MARC players will get the call this year.  Also on the first team is Aram Keshgegian ('19) who was named the 2018 MARC D1AA Fall 15's MVP and Max Bryson ('21) who had a stellar season at the center position.   There is a ton of talent on the second team as well. Nick Udovich ('20) can easily be a first team member and was recently ranked the #1  Fly Half by FloRugby. Ryan Monteverde and Vito Nucci both looked good during the regular season and John Dorman ('21) is another center that can get the ball moving forward. Honorable mention, Hunter Mason ('22), did a great job at fly half his freshman year and should be a top candidate for the 2018 D1AA Fall 15's Rookie of the Year.

Congrats to all the players named. Job well done. Looking forward to seeing them all out this spring for the 2019 MARC D1AA 7's Series! 


Aram Keshgegian ('19) had an impressive game in the MARC D1AA Championship.
