Men’s Rugby Imports Player of the Week

Player: Nicholas Wallace
School: William Paterson
Position: Flyhalf
Class: Sophomore

Wallace started the game off marshalling his troops and controlling the line speed on defence as they spent all of the first quarter of the game pegged in their own 22, albeit without conceding any points. Wallace settled in nicely during the rest of the game, setting a number of players into space. In the second half, Wallace found a bunch of space, dotting down four times in a 57-7 victory.

Women’s Rugby Imports Player of the Week

Player: Jill Brown
School: RPI
Position: Lock
Class: Senior

The senior captain displayed tremendous poise during a back and forth affair with Fairfield. Brown scored two tries both at key points in the game when the Engineers were trailing. RPI ultimately won 29-24.
