7s Rugby
In 7 a side rugby, Susquehanna has been extremely successful the last 7 years finishing among the top 10 teams in our division every year. The team qualified for 6 of the last 7 NSCRO 7s National Championships, winning a National Championship qualifier each time. In spring of 2018, the team won the NSCRO 7s National Championship Qualifier in Lancaster, PA and finished 5th in the 2018 NSCRO 7s national championship in Philadelphia. In the spring of 2016, they finished 3rd in the NSCRO 7s National Championship. The elite 7s team travels up and down the east coast playing in various national championships qualifiers. We also enter a side in the MARC NSCRO spring 7s competition against other colleges. In 2019, our Maroon side won the MARC NSCRO Spring 7s competition for the 2nd year in a row.
